How to make the swallowtail palm grow fast and strong

1. Suitable soil

If you want it to grow fast and strong, you need to use relatively permeable soil that contains certain nutrients. It is best to buy special soil, or mix it with river sand, garden soil or leaf mold. After preparation, add some organic fertilizer to increase the nutrients, which can ensure better growth.

2. Suitable temperature

It likes a warm environment, and the suitable temperature is around 25 degrees. It has low heat and cold resistance. If the temperature is above 33 degrees or below 13 degrees, it will affect the growth, so the temperature must be controlled and insulation measures must be taken in summer and winter.

3. Suitable lighting

If you want it to grow fast, you must provide it with appropriate light. It has a high demand for light and must be placed in the light during maintenance. It must be exposed to the sun more often. Only an environment with sufficient light can accumulate nutrients and help growth. Note that the plants should be shaded and protected from direct sunlight in summer, as strong light will burn them.

4. Adequate fertilizer and water

It is best to water it when you find the soil is dry. Don't water it too frequently to avoid water accumulation. Keep the soil slightly moist during the growing season, and control water during the dormant phase, keeping it slightly dry to help the plant survive better. In addition, you should apply thin fertilizers frequently and choose dilute liquid fertilizers. It is recommended to apply it once every half a month. In this way, the water and nutrients are sufficient, the growth rate of the plants will naturally accelerate, and they will grow stronger.
