Waiting for answer
The plant appears to be a Howea forsteriana (Kentia palm). It looks like it may have been neglected, as the leaves appear to be drooping and the trunk is covered in brown spots. This could be caused by a lack of water or proper care. To fix this issue, it's important to provide the plant with consistent moisture and bright, indirect light. It should be watered thoroughly, but not over-watered, and allowed to dry slightly before being watered again. The pot should also be larger than the current one to allow for adequate root growth. Additionally, it would be beneficial to fertilize the plant with a balanced fertilizer, such as a 20-20-20 NPK fertilizer, to provide essential nutrients. Lastly, move the plant to a spot where it will receive bright, indirect light. It is also important to remove the brown spots on the trunk, which can be caused by fungal or bacterial infections. Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe away the spots, and dispose of the cloth in a sealed bag to prevent the spread of any pathogens. It is also important to note that Kentia palms are relatively slow-growing, so it may take some time for the plant to recover from the neglect it has
When I bought it they told me no to water it often and at the moment its like this.
How long have you had it might be time to re pot
