Dig a hole two to three times wider than the root ball and slightly shallower; position the tree upright and backfill, watering to settle soil and remove air pockets. For containers, select a pot one to two times larger than the nursery container. Water when the top two inches of soil feel dry. Remove only damaged fronds with sterilized pruners—healthy growth requires minimal pruning. Apply a balanced palm fertilizer during the growing season to support vigorous development and fruit production.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"3 Gallon","offer_id":45814371221690,"sku":"11552","price":639.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/christmas-palm-tree.jpg?v=1777510167","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/christmas-palm-tree","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
