Raffia palms, a genus of large palms, require a unique set of care habits for holistically successful growth. Generally, the plants need indirect light, ample humidity, consistent water supply, and well-draining, nutrient-rich soil. Challenges often include pest infestations, primarily scale and red spider mites, and susceptibility to diseases like root rot if waterlogged. Seasonal considerations vary: additional moisture is needed in summers, while less watering and protection from harsh weather are advised in winters. Additionally, an increase in fertilizer application in the growth season of spring and summer is beneficial.
