Hello Terry! ‘In a corner with not much light’ doesn’t seem like an ideal situation for any plant. As mentioned in our article Areca Palms require plenty of bright, but indirect sunlight from a west- or south-facing window. So, I’d recommend moving it to a brighter spot.

Fertilizing is another issue, and finding the right one can be difficult, as the Areca Palm needs iron and magnesium to prevent yellowing leaves. These beautiful plants are sensitive to salts, so we recommend trying different fertilizers until you notice the plant is responding well. It’s important, however, to stop fertilizing your plants during the cold winter months.

Best of luck!
