How to Plant Bismarck Palm Seeds
Planting Season

- Spacing: Space seeds or young palms at least 8-10 feet apart to accommodate their mature size.
- Light: Bismarck Palm prefers full sun but can tolerate partial shade.

- Bismarck Palm requires regular watering when young, but once established, it is highly drought-tolerant. Water deeply to encourage deep root growth, and allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
