Licuala is a genus of tropical rainforest palms requiring high levels of consistent & indirect light, warmth, humidity, and well-drained organic-rich soil. Basic care demands feature watering to maintain soil moistness, while avoiding overwatering that leads to root rot. Common challenges include pests like mealybugs, spider mites, and diseases such as leaf-spot. Seasonal considerations involve increased watering during hot, dry seasons and reduced watering in cooler months. Indoors, consistent temperatures and humidity levels should be maintained year-round.
