Water the Mexican Fan Palm deeply when the top 5-10 cm of soil feel dry. During hot, dry periods, increase watering frequency. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged roots, which can lead to rot.

Reduce watering in cooler winter months, allowing the soil to dry out more between waterings.

Remove dead or dying fronds as they naturally droop and turn brown. Prune only at the crown base where the frond meets the trunk. Avoid removing green fronds, as they are essential for the palm's energy production.

Clean cuts minimize the risk of disease.

Washingtonia robusta is primarily propagated by seeds. Seeds can be sown in a warm, moist, and well-draining medium. Germination can be erratic, taking several weeks to months.

Soaking seeds in warm water for 24-48 hours before sowing may improve germination rates.

Young Mexican Fan Palms may need repotting every 1-2 years into a slightly larger container. Mature palms are best left undisturbed once established in the ground.

If repotting is necessary, handle the root ball carefully to avoid damage. Use a well-draining potting mix.
