That does also make it a\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e thirsty plant! Giving the Trachycarpus some extra plant food in the summer months does it good and 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 - 250 cm need?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAs mentioned, the Trachycarpus is a thirsty garden plant, and in the summer months especially it needs a drink every day. In summer the soil absolutely shouldn't dry out, but do watch out for too much water: the leaf tips will turn brown or black. When that happens you can prune those leaves, and then cut back on the water a little. In the winter months the soil can dry out slightly 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 - 250 cm need?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe ideal spot for the Trachycarpus is one with as much sunlight as possible. Both indoors and outdoors this plant can stand in full, direct sun. Do choose a spot out of the wind and draughts, as these make the leaves more likely to tear. As mentioned, the Trachycarpus is hardy, which means this gorgeous palm survives temperatures down to -18 degrees Celsius. At temperatures like that we do recommend bringing the palm inside or protecting it with special winter covers. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs the Trachycarpus - 250 cm a toxic plant?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eNo, the Trachycarpus isn't toxic and is therefore pet-friendly.
