Olive & Palm Mountain

Cycas Revoluta (Japanese Sago Palm) Large

This large Sago Palm is a beautiful, prehistoric-looking plant that adds a touch of exotic, timeless structure to any space. With its sturdy, pineapple-like trunk and a perfect, symmetrical crown of stiff, glossy, dark green fronds, it works brilliantly as a standalone feature. Whether placed in a statement pot on a patio or used as an architectural accent in a sheltered border, its slow-growing nature and bold silhouette provide a premium, long-lasting look that stays impressive throughout the year.

Size (H × W)

128 x 140 cm

Sunlight

Full Sun to Partial Shade. It loves a bright, sunny position to stay compact and healthy. In the hottest part of the summer, a little light, dappled shade can help prevent the dark green leaves from bleaching, but it generally thrives with plenty of light.

Watering

Low to Moderate. This plant is very drought-tolerant once it has settled in. Water thoroughly during the growing season, but always ensure the soil is dry to the touch before watering again. During the winter, keep it quite dry to avoid any risk of root rot.

Soil & Drainage

Sharply drained, sandy soil is essential. It is very sensitive to having "wet feet," so whether it is planted in the ground or a large feature pot, use a gritty, free-draining compost mix. If your soil is heavy or holds water, definitely work in extra horticultural grit to ensure water moves through the root zone quickly
