It speaks of sandy beaches, sunny skies, and warm days right at home. Also, a potted palm adds a bold, dramatic shape to a room. Palms are relatively easy to grow as houseplants. They'll thrive in years to come if you give them moderate light, average humidity, and constant moisture. This list of popular indoor palm plants will help you choose the right variety to grow in your home.

1. Areca Palm

The areca palm (Chrysalidocarpus lutescens) is a fast-growing indoor palm that will tolerate low light. It bears large, feathery fronds on gently arching stems. They can grow as much as 6 to 10 inches in a year under the right conditions, three or four hours of bright, indirect sunlight, constant moisture, and well-drained soil, so they often outgrow their space in just a few years. They usually top out at 6 to 7 feet tall indoors. Read more about How to Care Areca Palm- Complete Guide. 

2. Ponytail Palm Bonsai

This is one of the most popular tropical plants, the ponytail palm, which hails from Mexico. This plant, with its swollen base and long, thin leaves, which give it the look of a ponytail, has been called an elephant foot tree or bottle palm. Another beauty of the ponytail palm is that it is close to indestructible; it requires minimal care and can survive in low light. Even more, ponytail palms can go as low as 20 degrees Fahrenheit in temperature and do not feel anything when their watering schedules are erratic. Ponytail palms have become one of the more popular accent plants for interiors with their colorful foliage and hardy nature.Read more about How to Care for Palm Trees - Ultimate Guide.

3. Canary Island Date Palm

The Phoenix canariensis, commonly referred to as the Canary Island Date Palm, is a large, slow-growing palm tree from the Canary Islands. This makes the palm an ideal landscaping plant in most areas, especially where an architectural statement is called for with its beautiful leaves and drought tolerance. The Canary Island date palm is a large palm that will grow to 60 feet in height with a spread of up to 40 feet. It has a distinctive trunk covered in diamond-shaped leaf scars that give an interesting texture to the bark. Leaves are pinnate, feather-like, and may reach as much as 18 feet in length. The pinnae are rigid and bear sharp spines at the base, so care should be exercised when handling them.

If you are thinking of growing a Canary Island Date Palm, make sure to remember that it is one of the slow growers, needing much endurance and care. With proper care, this plant makes a stunning addition to any landscape.

4. Cardboard Palm Tree

Cardboard palm, or Zamia Furfuracea, is native to Mexico and, actually, not a palm but a cycad like the sago palm. It is a very slow-growing plant that may spread 3 to 4 feet; however, the main trunk of this plant remains underground. Leaflets develop and grow evergreen in opposing pairs of up to 12 per stem, getting attention both indoors as a potted plant and outdoors, where they can thrive in indirect sunlight in zones 9-11 and can handle neglect with ease. Cardboard palm can grow to be one of the largest American cycads and live for centuries.

5. Bottle Palm

The Bottle Palm (Hyophorbe lagenicaulis) is a peculiar and striking palm tree native to the Mascarene Islands of the Indian Ocean. It gets its name from its distinctive bottle-shaped trunk, which reaches heights of up to 10 feet and is up to 8 inches in diameter. The bottle palm is highly prized for its very distinctive appearance, unlike any other species of palm. This tropical palm becomes more bottle-shaped as it matures, having a standout silhouette that adds immediate value to gardens. Read more about Top 6 Best Cold Hardy Palm Trees for Your Landscape.
