# I got a Majesty Palm not realizing apparently they are very hard…

I got a Majesty Palm not realizing apparently they are very hard plant! I repotted it in a cactus/palm soil and got a terra cotta bulb and got a tray to add rocks too. Please give me all your tips it’s already looking sad!

Open your blinds to the fullest it looks healthy and hopefully you have it enough water and maybe keep in the garage or somewhere a bit more humid. But here go some research..

Majesty palms thrive with bright, indirect sunlight, regular watering (allowing the topsoil to dry slightly between waterings), and high humidity. They prefer well-draining soil and temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Repotting every other year is recommended to provide adequate root space.

I have ZERO luck with these beauties. I’ve put them on my front porch outside and they still croak. My neighbor took them and planted them in his landscape and they are beautiful now.

I also heard it's good to have the wind blowing on it gently from the windows outside or with a rotating fan so it makes the plant stronger. ☺️
