Areca palm (Dypsis lutescens) is a popular indoor and outdoor plant known for its graceful, feathery fronds and its ability to purify the air. Here are some tips for sowing and growing Areca palm from seeds:

  1. Seed Collection: Areca palm seeds can be collected from mature fruit that is ripe and yellow or orange in color. The fruit can be cut open to remove the seeds, which are about the size of a small pea.

  2. Soil and Potting: Areca palm seeds need to be planted in well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Use a pot with drainage holes and fill it with a soil mix that is equal parts sand, peat moss, and perlite.

  3. Germination: Soak the seeds in warm water for 24-48 hours before planting to soften the hard outer shell. Plant the seeds 1 inch deep in the soil, and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Germination can take up to 6 months, so be patient.

  4. Temperature and Light: Areca palm seeds need warm temperatures to germinate, ideally between 80 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Once the seeds have germinated, they need bright, indirect sunlight to grow.

  5. Watering and Fertilizing: Water the seedlings deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Fertilize the seedlings every two weeks with a balanced fertilizer to encourage healthy growth.

  6. Transplanting: Once the seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves and are about 6-8 inches tall, they can be transplanted to larger pots. Continue to provide bright, indirect sunlight and regular watering and fertilizing.

Overall, growing Areca palm from seeds can be a rewarding experience, but it requires patience and careful attention to soil, temperature, and light conditions. Once established, Areca palm is a low-maintenance plant that can add beauty and clean air to your home or garden.

Highly effective. Application requires patience.
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Things that I loved about this sunscreen lotion: Excellent barrier against the sun rays No nasty chemicals in the ingredients list Ability to purchase a smaller bottle Price is competitive with similar items My child had NO reaction to this product while in the sun and water Things that I didn't care for: How thick it is (although it could be part of why it is excellent protection) How long it takes to apply, multiple times to rub in How chalky white it is on the skin before absorption My daughter has eczema. In her toddler and younger years, it was in the joints of the arms and legs. She is now 9 and began having breakouts on her face after we spent a day in the sun or at the beach. Pink, flaky areas would hurt, even on her eyelids. We took her to a couple of doctors and they suggested changing her sunscreen to one that is only mineral based. I was beginning to think she was allergic to the sun or sand. We have used this a couple of times now at the pool and beach and she has not had another episode. Although this goes on thick and you have to rub it in for a few minutes, I will continue using it on her face. I did purchase a different brand of mineral sunscreen for easier application on her body, but she wasn't having a severe reaction elsewhere. If your child has any eczema issues that are exacerbated with the sun, salt or chlorine, I would highly recommend this product for at least the face. It's worth it.

Better now than before
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I first bought this sunscreen in May 2022, and I got it again now, June 2024. The product is different now and some of the changes are noticeable in the pictures I've included: new look and shape to the bottle, weighs a bit less (great for TSA if you travel), the ingredients are slightly different. What you can't see in the photos is that it definitely smells better than it did before and it goes on your skin clearer than it used to; it would make me look like a ghost before, whereas now, it just makes my face shiny. It feels kind of dry when you apply it, definitely non-greasy. It still holds up great while sweating and swimming. And it definitely does its job of protecting from sunburns. Overall, I'm happy with the changes they've made and I would recommend it to anyone looking for durable mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin.

No stinging eyes for 6 yrs
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Out of all the sunscreens I've tried (zinc or otherwise) Alba Botanica is the only one that has not stung my eyes. Been using continuously for around 6 years. 7-8 years ago tried Neutrogena zinc sunscreen. It didn't sting initially but started stinging 1 year after continuous use. And Alba Botanica zinc Spf 50 does leave a white cast, just less intense than Neutrogena zinc.

Great on paper, but milky
Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Based on my research I think it's one of the best physical sunscreens. Highest active ingredient percent and good price. It is quite white and harder to melt in and I still tan quite deeply.
