How to Care for the Plant

Water
A new palm should be watered everyday on its first week, switch to every other day the following and then settle for 3 times a week on the third. Then water as normal for established plants. For more established palms, watering should be done only 2-3 times per week, and this is only in the absence of rainfall.
Pruning
Do not require pruning, aside from cutting any branches that are dead, diseased, or damaged. You should prune those as soon as you notice them.
Fertilizer
To prevent nutritional deficiency, apply good quality palm fertilizer that has continuous release formula twice a year during growing season.
