Easy to grow: Parlor palm tree's are quite an easy plant to grow and care for, which makes them suitable for those new to growing indoors. They tolerate low light and colder conditions pretty well. They also don’t need a great amount of feeding or watering.
Fronds (leaves): The fronds on this palm grow and kind of droop or arch over from the stems once its matured, although it takes quite a bit of time for them to develop.
Flowers: Some will sprout yellow flowers after a few years of growth and produce seeds, however, the seeds are not likely to grow future plants.
Growth rate: These do take time to grow to a full size plant, as mentioned above. The amount of time may depend on its light conditions. They all need a few years regardless of conditions.
Fronds browning: If the fronds start to go brown at the tips make sure they have been watered enough, spray mist them, and check they are not getting too much cold air from windows or doors.
Yellowing fronds: Under-watering is likely. Replenishing them with water should do the trick...not over watering though.
Brown fronds: Normal browning of the leaves occur naturally and need to be removed by cutting. If they are also rotting, you could be over-watering.
Insects: Red spider mites and mealy bugs are a potential insect that can cause problems. Misting and cleaning with a damp cloth can prevent or remove these from the plant. Malathion or systemic insecticide may also be needed.
