The clustering fishtail palm (Caryota mitis) prefers a warm, humid environment and grows best in partial shade to full sun. It thrives in well-drained, fertile soil that is kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry periods, and occasional feeding with a balanced fertilizer will promote healthy growth. This palm is relatively low-maintenance but should be protected from frost and strong winds. As it naturally forms clumps, older stems may be pruned to maintain shape and encourage new growth.
