Bought this baby almost a month ago. Today I discovered spidermites which is why I was reluctant to bring a palm inside my home. Not to hate on plants but I hate palms as houseplants because in my experience they are like MAGNETS to spidermites. The plant receives perfect water, great humidity is healthy in a bright room with other plants and it somehow was solely able to acquire spider mites. Never again will another palm come inside my house!!!!! Great plants just not in the house, for me.
