Regular watering is necessary during the growing season, but the soil should be allowed to dry out between waterings. This palm also benefits from moderate humidity levels.Bodem
Latania lontaroides prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but thrives best in soil that retains some moisture without becoming waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 is suitable for the Red Latan Palm. Fertilize during the growing season, typically every 2-3 months, to support healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can damage the plant.Verpotten
