Recommendations

• Chamaerops humilis is not considered toxic to children or pets, so it is generally safe in that respect. However, due to the presence of thorns on its leaves, it could pose a risk of injury if handled roughly. It is important to teach children to be careful around the plant and to supervise pet interaction to avoid accidents.

Care

• Light: Prefers full sun, but can also tolerate some partial shade. Place the plant in a location where it receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal growth.
• Water: Water regularly during the growing season, keeping the substrate slightly moist. Reduce watering in winter, allowing the top layer of substrate to dry out between waterings.
• Soil: Use a well-drained, fertile substrate. Make sure the pot has drainage holes in the bottom to avoid waterlogging of the roots.
• Temperature: Tolerates a wide range of temperatures, but prefers warm climates and does not tolerate frost well. Protect the plant from extreme cold during winter.
• Fertilize: Apply a balanced fertilizer for outdoor plants once a month during the growing season. Follow product instructions for proper dosage.
• Pruning: Trim dead or damaged leaves as needed to maintain a tidy appearance and prevent plant health problems.
