Salak palm, also known as Snake palm
Salak palm requires a tropical or subtropical environment, making it challenging to grow outside these conditions. It needs high humidity, consistent watering to keep the soil moist, and protection from strong winds. A notable special care point for salak palm is its need for well-draining soil enriched with organic matter. The presence of sharp spines on the fronds and fruit necessitates careful handling during maintenance.
