Review. Areca palm (Dypsis lutescens, H. Wendel) growth
Main Article Content
Abstract
ornamental groups making up some families of about 3 000
species. They are real jewels from plant kingdom and also
wanted for their exoticism to decorate gardens all over the
world. Among them are those pertaining to Dypsis genus,
which has more than 100 species, Dypsis lutescens being the
most worldwide used for landscape gardening. In Cuba, both
plant production and marketing have been constantly dynamic;
however, trade demands can not be satisfied, due to the slow
plant growth and short seed viability that makes them be all
sown at once, to obtain results at the same time instead of
gradually, so that they are within customers´ reach whenever
they need them. Having in mind how significant palm tree
marketing is, it is evidently necessary to study some
alternatives to improve plant quality and production by means
of using growth-promoting substances, as well as seed
preservation methods and germination studies.
