Water once or twice a week in summer and once every two weeks in winter. Repot the Chameadorea once every 2 years. This ensures that the plant has more soil and thus a larger storage for nutrients. In addition, the soil also provides a larger water buffer so that the plant is less likely to run out of water.
The Chamaedorea does like light, but not direct sunlight. A spot in the semi-shade is therefore the best solution. Place the plant in front of a window on the north. When the plant starts to have yellow leaves, this means that the plant gets too much light and you need to provide more shade.
