1. Neanthe Belle palms are 3′ tall low light green plants. This delicate foliage palm can soften your steel finish and glass accents found on your doors, cubicles, and conference rooms. Interior landscapers in the Boston area use these palms especially under their corporate logos, your art work or even your company posters.

2. Native to: Mexico and Guatemala

Growth habit: An upright and some what columnar bush usually not over 4′ in height or 36″ in width.

Flowers: Yes, but unremarkable.

Temps: Normal indoor temps

Humidity: Not critical.

Pests: Watch for spider mites.

Lighting:

3. Indoor office plant Cultural information: Neanthea Bella Palm is an affordable small palm that is well suited to life indoors. Its compact shape and ease of care makes it a great choice for the home or office. Neanthe Bella palm performs well in dry climates and rarely exhibits tip browning.

4. As with most members of the Chamaedorea family, Parlor Palms will grow best if placed in filtered light. If there is enough light, either natural or artificial to cast a shadow the Neanthe Bella palm should do well there.

5. Check the Neanthe Bella palm for water twice a week until you become familiar with the plants needs. The amount of water the plant uses will depend on the amount of light it receives. The lower the light, the less water the plant will need. The reverse is true for brighter lighting. On small plants let the surface soil dry to the touch between waterings. For larger specimens allow the surface soil to dry down about 1″ between waterings. Water all the way around the plant to avoid creating dry spots in the soil which will lead to frond loss. Water until a small amount of seeps from the drainage holes. Remove excess water from the drip tray within one hour of watering to help prevent root rot.

6. Indoors Parlor Palms are not heavy feeders. Fertilize once a month during the spring and summer months. Feed bi-monthly or quarterly during the winter with Peter’s Houseplant Special or our interiorscape formular called Dynagrow.

7. At the nursery Neanthe Bella palms are grown from seed. To propagate, the plant can be divided… but expect heavy die back of palm fronds and a slow recovery. Propagation is not recommended.

8. Common officeplant pests can include: Foliar Mealy bug and Spider mites.

9. “Neanthe Bella Palms” are available in nearly every container size from very small starter 3″ starter plants to large 10″, 12″, and 14″ specimen plants.

10. Plantscape Designs Inc. uses these low profile palm species under many of your corporate logos to direct your clients eye to your reception signs in the Burlington, MA interior office areas.

Abbott Corporation, Burlington, MA

Abbott, a world leader in providing products to treat the full range of clinical needs for advanced heart failure patients, is a long-time client of Plantscape Design, Inc., who has provided green and flowering plants as well as office plant care and maintenance for this company for over 10 years. Because the floor space in Abbott’s new office on Middlesex Turnpike is at a premium, Plantscape Designs Inc. has incorporated space-saving solutions in their office plant design. Mona Lisa Cane indoor plants have been installed in narrow interior office spaces, using new contemporary designer Cubico planters. The vertical aspect of these tall, attractive plants helps solve the problem of managing limited floor space. John, our field manager and installer, has also placed a dozen topsider planter boxes on the sides as well as on top of the Abbott’s cubicles, creatively utilizing vertical space as well as providing a soothing, softening effect to contrast the hard lines of the office furniture. In addition, the front reception interior planter, populated with an 8’ Braided Ficus Benjamina, Sansevieria and Silver Queens, welcomes business clients and medical personal.

“We have been working with Plantscape Designs since 2004 and have been very pleased with the quality of service and products that Joe Gallo and his team have given us over the years. When we initially decided we wanted plants in the office, we contacted Plantscape and were visited by their botanist who recommended the appropriate plants for our office environment. We have been working with the same trustworthy technicians since 2004 and find them to be knowledgeable and helpful with any of our concerns. From time to time, we are pleased to see that Plantscape Designs will exchange plants with something new and innovative. Please feel free to contact me to discuss my experience with Plantscape. Each month we receive a beautiful botanical arrangement made by Plantscape for our reception area. This living arrangement uses new and beautiful flowering and green plants and always looks healthy and vibrant. Our clients and employees enjoy seeing this ever-changing arrangement.”
