Caring tips
PREPARE
The key to establishing a lush, happy palm (especially in autumn and winter) is to keep its roots warm with layers of mulch and manure. Palms love organic matter, so for best results, mulch with enriched cow manure, tea tree mulch or Organic Active 8 Soil Improver and Planting Mix.
FEED
Fertilise six times a year (not in winter) with a palm fertiliser.
PRUNE
Trim brown fronds, cutting about seven centimetres from the trunk, or simply pull the fronds out.
WATER
The Majestic palm likes to be kept moist, especially while it’s getting established. But once established, keep it dry in winter and moist in summer.
