King palms are a popular choice for homeowners throughout southern California. They are relatively low-maintenance, self cleaning and can bring a tropical vibe to any landscape. They are native to Australia and prefer warmer temperatures. They cannot tolerate anything below 28° Fahrenheit. To keep your king palm looking its best, I've provided some tips below.

• Keep the soil moist! Compared to other palms, these babies require more water than most so make sure you don't let the soil try out. Obviously, you will find yourself watering more in the summer than in the winter.
• Mix the soil up. Using a combination of both sand and soil will make your king palm the happiest. Use sand for the bottom of the planting site and a combination of sand and soil for the rest of the surrounding area.
• Be careful when pruning. The king palm lacks the ability to heal itself and its for this reason that you must try to avoid pruning or removal of its flowers. Any cuts or damage to the tree leaves it vulnerable to fungus and diseases.
• Fertilize your palm at least four times a year. Use a slow-release fertilizer that is formulated specifically for palms.
• Watch for leaning. If you start notice that the palm is leaning more towards one side then its time to provide some extra support at the base. This can be accomplished by placing boards into the ground at its base and using bungee cords to set the palm upright. The boards can be removed once the tree is stronger and can support itself.
