Kentia Palms - Howea fosteriana


Kentia Palms - Howea fosteriana (Howea forsteriana (Kentia palm))

There’s 10 Kentia palms in front of the house. Some were planted in 2005 and some grew into the ground from the bottom of the pots. I just finished pruning them a few days ago. Photo taken January 24, 2025.

Love the look of Kentia Palms and the fact that they're relatively low maintenance compared to many other palms.

Mine in the backyard is now just about seeable from the street over the house. I planted it in 1993. It makes seeds. But its fronds are sort of gray color I think the heat of roof causes that but not sure.
Are those ten from your garden?
