They look at home in a Mediterranean display and blend well with desert cacti and tropical plants. Once you&#8217;ve decided to incorporate a sago palm into your garden, you get the excitement of planning where you&#8217;ll plant it. The sago palm is a hearty plant with few requirements.<\/p>\n<p>They grow best in partial sun, so try to pick a place that receives direct sunlight some of the time. They&#8217;re also susceptible to wind damage, so aim for a spot with some coverage. Plant your palm in well-draining soil to prevent root rot and fungus. The sago palm doesn&#8217;t need much water. Keep this in mind if you intend to add companion plants. They should have similar soil, light, and water requirements.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s easy to see why Martha Stewart likes this prehistoric plant. Dramatic and bold, yet beginner-friendly, the sago palm is a great choice for creating a striking display. So, take a page from Martha&#8217;s book, or rather, a plant from her garden, and plant a delightful sago palm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Martha Stewart knows a thing or several about gardening.
