It does make it a\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e thirsty plant! Giving the Trachycarpus a little extra plant food over the summer months pays off, because it supports its growth and development. Use a palm food and never give more than the recommended amount.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow much water does the Trachycarpus - 240 cm need?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAs we said, the Trachycarpus is a thirsty garden plant and it needs a drop of water every day, especially over the summer months. The soil must not dry out in summer, but do watch out for too much water: overwatering turns the leaf tips brown or black. If that happens you can prune those leaves away, and then cut back a little on the amount you give. In the winter months the soil can dry out a bit between waterings. With less sunlight reaching the plant in winter, it uses less water too.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow much light does the Trachycarpus - 240 cm need?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe ideal spot for the Trachycarpus is wherever it gets the most sunlight. Both indoors and outdoors this plant is happy in full, direct sun. Do pick a spot out of the wind and away from draughts, because that damages the leaves faster. As we said, the Trachycarpus is hardy, which means this handsome palm survives temperatures down to -18 degrees Celsius. At temperatures like that we would still recommend bringing the palm indoors or protecting it with special winter covers. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs the Trachycarpus - 240 cm a toxic plant?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eNo, the Trachycarpus is not toxic and it is therefore pet-friendly. We would still advise against eating the leaves or using them in food.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow is my Trachycarpus - 240 cm shipped?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003estylish palm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e is delivered in a nursery pot.
