Planting & Care

1. Planting:?You don’t have to immediately repot your plant – you’ll only need to repot?approximately every other year, once your Palm outgrows its shipped container or original pot. Increase the pot size by 2 inches each time you repot to accommodate new growth.?Take care when repotting as there are sawtooth spines at the base of the leaves.?

This palm is very adaptable and will fill the space you allow it to grow in. For in-ground planting you can expect your palm to get grow tall to 50-100 ft in ideal conditions compared to container planted palms. Choose a location keeping this eventual height in mind.?

2. Watering:?Mist your Palm weekly if kept indoors in addition to regular watering ?C this ensures that its native humid climate is simulated in your home. If you’re not sure when to water, simply check the soil about 2 inches down. If the soil is dry here, it’s time to water.

FGT Tip:?If fronds begin to yellow, it could be a sign of overwatering. If you see yellowed fronds, allow time for the soil to dry before watering your plant again. Browning fronds, however, mean that your Palm is not getting enough water and needs more. Using a well draining potting mix is key in getting this balance.

3. Pruning:?Simply any fronds as they turn yellow or brown. This improves the look of your plant and creates clean space for healthier green fronds to grow.

4. Fertilizing:?You can apply palm fertilizers that contain specific nutrients best suited for palms. If you prefer, you can also use a balanced fertilizer, such as an 8-8-8 formula, for quicker growth in spring and summer.
