  4. Space Properly – Allow 6-10 feet between palms for proper growth and airflow.

  5. Water Regularly – Keep soil moist during the first year, then reduce watering as the palm becomes drought-tolerant.

  6. Fertilize Lightly – Apply a balanced palm fertilizer during the growing season to encourage healthy growth.

  7. Prune Sparingly – Remove dead or damaged fronds to maintain a tidy appearance.

  8. Protect in Winter – Mulch around the base and wrap the trunk in colder zones to protect from frost.
