Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, allowing the top 2-3 cm to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering frequency during winter months. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure good drainage.
Remove yellow or brown fronds by cutting them at the base of the stalk. Do not remove green fronds, as they are essential for the plant's energy production. Pruning is minimal and only for aesthetic maintenance.
Propagation is typically done through seeds, which can be slow and challenging. Soak seeds in warm water for 24-48 hours before sowing in a well-draining seed-starting mix. Maintain consistent warmth and moisture.
Repot your Majesty Palm every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
Use a well-draining potting mix, ideally one formulated for palms or a general-purpose mix with added perlite.
