I COULD NOT pass this one up although I hovered around it at Lowes for quite awhile before deciding to buy it...$3...yep you read it right. Three bucks. Why did I hesitate you might ask. Well, I already own over 100 cacti and succulents along with a few orchids and jungle cacti.
Ok, so my problem is I've had a MUCH smaller plant that was either a palm or a cycad and I killed it. I don't know how. It just slowly died. I couldn't tell you at this point in time how much or how little water I was giving it. I'd just like the best advice you can give me so I don't kill this one. Keep this in mind...I live in mid western Ohio. This puppy will have to live inside and like it (it will be able to go outside in the late spring, summer, and early fall. I DO know that the media it is in is pretty wet. What a surprise since it came from Lowes. Can y'all give me some advice on how to best grow this plant?
Thanks!
Sharon
P.S. One of the photo's has a dog in it just so you know about the size of this palm.
