📌 Note: These plants are imported. Due to temperature and humidity variations during international transport, the tips of some leaves may show dryness, discoloration, or other aesthetic imperfections. These are common in palms and do not affect the plant’s viability or development. Areca continuously produces new leaves that will develop normally under optimal growing conditions.
