Well-draining sandy loam with perlite or coarse sand to prevent root rot.
Water when topsoil is dry. Drought tolerant once established. Reduce watering significantly in winter dormancy.
Full sun preferred. Indoors requires a bright south-facing window; protect from scorching midday heat.
Feed monthly with balanced palm fertilizer during growing season (Spring/Summer). Avoid excess nitrogen.
Remove dead or brown fronds at the trunk base only. Never cut green leaves as this weakens the plant.
