The Cuban royal palm (Roystonea regia) thrives in full sun and well-drained, fertile soil. It prefers warm, tropical to subtropical climates and is moderately drought-tolerant once established, though regular watering during dry periods promotes optimal growth. This palm benefits from occasional feeding with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer, especially during the growing season. Good air circulation and ample space are important, as it can grow quite tall and wide. Minimal pruning is needed—only remove dead or damaged fronds. It is relatively low-maintenance and resistant to pests, making it an excellent choice for large landscapes and open spaces.
