Sago Palm (Cycas revoluta)
This was a clearance item, but it didn't look in too bad of shape. The tag says it needs one cup of water, every two weeks. Ooo, nice. I bought a planter that should fit it for years to come.
And the potting soil suitable for palms.
Came home and looked up info about it. Well, the employee's description it should not get above waist height was wrong- up to ten feet! Ok, that's fine. Our downstairs ceilings are about that high, if I remember. But the database says it likes to be under potted, so as of now, it's in the original pot until I get the right size. So under potting is just putting it in a pot that would otherwise be considered too small for other plants?
And that abnormal branch... would it kill the plant if I just cut that off? I think it would look a lot nicer if it was uniform, but maybe the rest will come out like this eventually?
I am trying to overcome my black thumbs, so I hope you do not mind the questions.
Thank you so much.
