Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos

Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.

Survived me. That's a big deal.

I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.

Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected

Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

About the China Palm

The China Palm (Livistona chinensis) is a subtropical palm tree native to southern Japan, Taiwan, and southeastern China. It's known for its distinctive fan-shaped leaves that create an elegant, tropical appearance. This palm is highly adaptable, making it a popular choice for indoor and outdoor spaces in India. It's a slow-growing plant that can tolerate high temperatures and drought conditions, making it an excellent low-maintenance option for homes and offices. The China Palm is also valued for its air-purifying properties, helping to improve indoor air quality by removing pollutants and releasing oxygen.

Light & Placement

The China Palm thrives in medium to filtered light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as this can burn its leaves. The ideal location is near an east or north-facing window where it receives gentle morning light. For indoor settings, a well-lit spot away from harsh afternoon sun is perfect. Outdoors, it can be placed in a semi-shaded area. This palm is adaptable to various light conditions, making it suitable for living rooms, offices, and even low-light balconies. Proper placement ensures the plant maintains its graceful appearance and continues to purify the air effectively.

Watering & Humidity

Water the China Palm when the soil is completely dry. Since it's often placed indoors, it may take a few days for the soil to dry out completely. Water thoroughly, ensuring excess water drains away. The plant is drought-tolerant, so it's better to underwater than overwater. The China Palm also helps regulate humidity levels by releasing moisture through its leaves, creating a more comfortable environment. In dry conditions, occasional misting can be beneficial. During the monsoon season, reduce watering frequency as the plant may receive more ambient moisture.

Care steps

  1. Place in bright, indirect light. Position near an east or north-facing window to avoid direct sunlight which can burn the leaves.
  2. Water when soil is dry. Check the soil moisture and water thoroughly only when the topsoil is completely dry to prevent overwatering.
  3. Use well-draining soil. Plant in a mix of cocopeat, garden soil, and vermicompost for proper drainage and aeration.
  4. Fertilize every 2 months. Apply vermicompost every two months to provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.
  5. Wipe leaves occasionally. Gently wipe the leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and help the plant absorb more light.
  6. Protect from cold drafts. Keep away from air conditioners and cold windows during winter to maintain optimal temperature.
