Easy to Grow Indoor Palm Tree

Sago Palm is one of the most popular indoor palm trees. It will add interest and beauty to your home while also being low-maintenance.  Sago Palm is an interior decorator’s dream, with gorgeous feathery fronds atop an attractive swollen base. Sago Palm is ideal for forgetful plant owners because you can forget to water it and it’ll still look great.

They aren’t actual palms; they are cycads, one of the oldest plant groups on Earth. They’re frequently referred to as a “living fossil” and they grew on Earth when dinosaurs roamed! Today, Sago Palm looks terrific displayed on a tabletop, mantle, or bathroom vanity. Sago Palm can also be used on a porch or patio during the summer months.

This is an ideal houseplant for any home, apartment, or office. It sculptural shape makes it look like a piece of living art. They are so attractive, they make great gifts. Sago Palm is often featured in home interiors in magazines and social media because of its attractive and usual shape. This is the ideal houseplant for living rooms, hallways, dens, patios, and bedrooms.

Grow Sago Palm in medium or bright light. It excels in bright spots. They can take direct sun on its foliage when grown as a houseplant, even in hot summer areas. If your Sago Palm doesn’t get enough light, the leaves will grow longer (stretching toward the light); bright light results in shorter leaves.

Sago Palm likes being on the dry side. It hates overly moist or soggy soil. Most times when a Sago Palm dies, it is due to over-watering. The frequency of watering will depend on your Sago Palm’s pot size, how much light it gets, and the indoor temperature of your home. Never allow the plant’s base to sit in moist or soggy soil.

Sago Palm typically doesn’t require pruning or shaping to keep its good looks. Remove yellow or faded leaves by clipping them off at the base of the stem.
