Horty Hints
Powerful potential. The betel nut can grow up to 20 meters high in the wild. Although they won’t get that big indoors, given proper care and time, their beautifully feathered leaves can grow up to 3 meters long.
The bigger the pot! If you want a large leafy display, re-pot it into a bigger pot. If you prefer smaller and more compact, leave it as is.
