Cultivation Tips
It is a more sold hardy version of Sabal minor. It grows best in hot and humid tropical and subtropical summer weather. Just like the weather conditions, the plant easily grows in a variety of light conditions too. While it does well in direct sunlight to partial shade or even full shade, it thrives when planted in full sun protected from the wind. Feed occasionally during the growing season with a high quality palm fertilizer.
