Water regularly, allowing the top 5-7 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. In warmer months, increase frequency. Reduce watering in cooler periods to prevent root rot.

Ensure good drainage to avoid waterlogged conditions, especially in containers.

Prune only to remove dead, damaged, or diseased fronds. Cut them close to the trunk. Avoid removing green fronds, as they are essential for the palm's energy production.

This minimal pruning helps maintain the plant's natural shape and health.

Propagation is typically done through seeds. Seeds require warm temperatures and consistent moisture for germination, which can be slow and erratic. It is often more practical to purchase young plants from a nursery.

Repot young Manila Palms every 1-2 years, or when root-bound. Mature plants can be repotted less frequently. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.

Handle the root ball gently to avoid damage.
