Lipstick palm is one of the must have palm plants because of its stunning tropical appearance. It is slow grower palm and loves to grow in dense groups. Like many other palms it can be kept in bright light indoors or in full sun outdoors.

It grows well in containers and prefers indirect bright light but its leaves will not get burned in direct sun light too.

It tolerates to winters temperature up to 10 degree celsius and summer temperature up to 45 degree will not harm it.

For side information, red palm oil contains the highest amounts of vitamins A and E of any plant- based oil.

Red palm also contains at least ten other carotenes, including the antioxidants, tocopherols and tocotrienols (vitamin E).

Dig around the root zone with your fingers to a depth of 2-3' for small plants and water generously when the soil feels dry to the touch.
Use a balanced fertilizer i.e., 10-10-10, 14-14-14 (Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K)) food with micro-nutrients.
Be observant of the changes in plant vigor and growth, plants are more susceptible to disease and pests if they are weakened through poor maintenance.
It is good to make it a practice to inspect plants progress so you can spot systems of disease or insect infestations well in advance of any serious problem.
