Christmas Palm Care
This tree is not considered to be cold tolerant as they don’t do well with any frost. It will surely kill them.In a container, their growth will slow and they will never reach their full size. Maybe only 10-12 feet at most.Outside in soil, they will grow taller and a bit faster, reaching closer to 20 feet or so.
| Sunlight | Full to part sun |
| Watering | They require water regularly. If there are drought conditions setting up they will do okay for a short time. It’s much better for you to supplement water until it passes. |
| Soil | Any soil but benefits from some organic material. |
| Temperature | Minimum temp 30F. |
| Fertilizer | Fertilizing with a good quality palm food and mineral mix- make sure it is slow release- every 4 months or so. |
