Plant Description
Â
The Parlour Palm (Chamaedorea elegans) is one of the most recognisable, scientifically supported indoor plants for air purification, humidity balance, and effortless maintenance.
Its soft, arching fronds and compact growth make it a favourite in homes, offices, and bedrooms where clean air and a calming atmosphere matter most.
How the Parlour Palm Brings 5 Health Benefits to Your Space
1. Air Purification
Research from NASA’s Clean Air Study found that the Parlour Palm helps remove common indoor toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and carbon monoxide from the air.
This contributes to a cleaner, healthier indoor environment, particularly in modern homes where ventilation is often limited.
2. Oxygen Production
Like most palms, the Parlour Palm releases oxygen during daylight hours while absorbing carbon dioxide.
This helps refresh the air, supporting improved concentration, reduced fatigue, and a more energising living or working space.
3. Humidity & Respiratory Support
The Parlour Palm naturally releases moisture into the air through a process called transpiration.
This helps combat dry indoor conditions caused by air conditioning and heating, which can ease dry skin, sore throats, and irritated sinuses.
4. Stress Reduction & Wellbeing
Studies in environmental psychology show that leafy, natural plants like palms reduce stress, anxiety, and mental fatigue.
The Parlour Palm’s soft, flowing fronds create a relaxing visual effect, helping spaces feel calmer, warmer, and more inviting.
5. Low Maintenance & Longevity
The Parlour Palm is known for thriving on minimal care.
-
Tolerates low to medium light
-
Grows slowly and stays compact
-
Needs only moderate watering
This makes it ideal for beginners, busy households, and office environments.
Aesthetic Appeal
With its elegant, feathery fronds and lush green colour, the Parlour Palm adds softness, movement, and natural beauty to any room.
It works beautifully in bedrooms, living rooms, and offices, complementing both modern and classic interiors.
Disadvantages
Slower Growth
The Parlour Palm grows slowly, so it won’t quickly fill large empty spaces.
Sensitive to Overwatering
It prefers slightly moist soil but does not tolerate sitting in water. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
Pet Sensitivity
While generally considered non-toxic, some pets may chew the leaves, which can cause mild stomach upset.

Plant Care
Watering
Water your plant once a week or when the soil starts to feel slightly dry on the surface. Keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to overwater, as this can cause brown spots and leaf drop. If the leaves become curly or dry, it's a sign that the plant needs water. It's best to water your plant in the early morning or late evening when the temperatures are cooler. Always check the soil before watering.
Light
Provide bright indoor light or indirect sunlight for about 6 to 8 hours a day.
Temperature
Maintain temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid exposing the plant to drafts, as these can cause undesirable temperature fluctuations. Mist the plant occasionally, about twice a week, to help maintain optimal humidity levels.
Fertilizer
Apply liquid fertiliser every 15 days when the plant is actively growing. For best results, use Folikraft ready-to-use Indoor Plant Food.
