  • Christmas palm seeds
  • Measuring cup
  • Container
  • Thermometer
  • Water

    1. Purchase seeds from a reputable nursery or collect them by opening the ripened fruit of an existing Christmas palm and removing by hand.
    2. Remove as much of the pulp from the collected seeds as possible and briefly dip them into a measured solution of 10 percent bleach and 90 percent water to kill bacteria that may be present. Rinse the seeds immediately with plain water.
    3. Fill a container with potting soil and moisten with water. Insert the seed just below the surface. Place the planter in a warm location with temperatures ranging between 70 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a thermometer to be sure. Do not place in direct light as this will dry out the seed rapidly. Keep the soil moist by misting with water from a spray bottle daily or as needed. The seed should germinate within 100 days.
    4. Transfer the growing seedling to larger containers as necessary or plant in your outdoor landscape. Its location needs to receive full sun and moderate rain. The soil should be moist but not soggy. Water during periods of drought.
