This is one of the more thoroughly documented palms in our catalogue — exact item dimensions, inner and outer pot measurements, and a net weight of 3.84 kg are all specified. What isn't published is a leaf count, a trunk material, or a UV rating, so treat it as an indoor-only piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn Areca's appeal is its stem structure as much as its fronds — a real Areca clumps into multiple ringed, cane-like stalks rather than growing a single fat trunk, and that clumping habit is exactly what makes a good artificial version convincing. This one ships with 12 stems, a genuine multi-trunk construction rather than one moulded trunk pretending to be several, and multi-stem palms are consistently the ones that read most convincingly as artificial trees in this category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe overall footprint is 35.43 by 31.5 by 60.63 inches (900 by 800 by 1540 mm), the outer white planter measures 15.75 by 8.66 by 8.66 inches (400 by 220 by 220 mm), and an inner pot at 6.3 by 5.12 inches (160 by 130 mm) is sized to hold a nested grower pot.

With 12 individual stems folded together for transit, this one takes longer to open out than a single-trunk palm — work stem by stem, separating each cluster of fronds from its neighbours before fanning the leaflets on any one frond. Fluffing a clumping palm properly is a slower job than a broadleaf tree because there's more individual structure to set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt roughly 8.5 lbs and 5 ft tall, one person can handle this comfortably, but the outer planter's dimensions (15.75 x 8.66 x 8.66 in) mean it isn't a small footprint to find room for once it's set up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShipping damage is the single most common complaint in this category — cracked pots, bent stems, crushed bases.

That's a genuine multi-stem, clumping construction rather than a single moulded trunk, which matters for how convincing an Areca reads — the species naturally grows in a cluster of cane-like stalks, not one trunk, and a smooth single-trunk fake is one of the easier tells in this category. The stems themselves are not the same as the leaf material — only the leaf material (PE) is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the exact dimensions of this palm and its pot?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall item dimensions of 35.43 x 31.5 x 60.63 inches (900 x 800 x 1540 mm), an outer planter at 15.75 x 8.66 x 8.66 inches (400 x 220 x 220 mm), and an inner pot at 6.3 x 5.12 inches (160 x 130 mm) sized to hold a nested grower pot. Net weight is 8.47 lbs (3.84 kg).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the inner pot fit a standard grower pot?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inner pot measures 6.3 x 5.12 inches (160 x 130 mm), sized for a nested grower pot rather than for soil directly. The shape of that inner cavity isn't specified, so if you plan to swap in your own liner, measure your pot against those figures before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much does this artificial palm weigh?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e8.47 lbs (3.84 kg), which is light for a 5 ft floor palm and one of the lower figures in our palm range. That covers the tree and its outer planter together. In practical terms, one person can lift and reposition this comfortably without help, which is worth knowing if you plan to move it seasonally or between rooms. The bigger constraint ends up being footprint rather than weight: the outer planter alone measures 15.75 x 8.66 x 8.66 inches, so finding a spot it actually fits is more of a planning question than a lifting one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I put this Areca palm outside?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe'd keep it indoors. Ultraviolet exposure is what fades and eventually degrades artificial PE foliage over repeated seasons outdoors, and without a stated UV rating we have no basis for telling you how this particular tree would hold up. Reconsider this product if genuine open-air placement is the actual point of your purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Eververda","offers":[{"title":"green","offer_id":48234595844332,"sku":"EV-PLM-0654-GREEN","price":439.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0840\/5263\/9980\/files\/hf_20260830_231538_482ff198-ee53-41ad-9528-c2673bee20c4.png?v=1788133759","url":"https:\/\/checkout.eververda.com\/products\/artificial-areca-palm-tree-5-ft-12-stem-white-tall-planter","provider":"Eververda","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
