A Hawaiian palm can reach a height of up to one meter as a houseplant. But she needs some time - like all succulents.
You do not have to repot a Hawaiian palm so often. In general, it is enough to put them every two or three years in a larger pot.
If the stem of the Hawaiian palm softens, it is often an indication of too moist a substrate. In this case you should repot the houseplant into new, quite dry soil.
When is the ideal time to repot?
The Hawaiian Palm has its main growth phase in December. The best time to repot is before or after this phase. Reverse Hawaii palm trees in either spring or autumn.
Once roots grow out of the bottom of the pot, you should put the Hawaii palm in a larger planter.
The new pot should have at least two inches more diameter than the old one. It is important that he has a good drain hole, so that excess irrigation water can drain. Never leave water in the coaster or planter as Hawaii palm trees will not tolerate waterlogging.
How to pot the Hawaii palm properly
Cactus soil from the gardening market is suitable as the earth for Hawaii palm trees. You can also assemble the substrate yourself. The basis is normal garden soil, which you mix with gravel, expanded clay, sand or lava earth. The addition of loosening materials prevents the Hawaiian Palm from being waterlogged.
For the drainage layer you can use coarse gravel.
Tips
The Hawaiian palm is not poisonous. It is therefore an ideal houseplant for families with children or people who keep pets.
