Sago Palm
With dark green, upright fronds, and a textural majestic stem, the Sago Palm combines easy-care with a dramatic architectural form. Thriving in direct to bright indirect light, this plant can easily transition outdoors for the summer. Keep a pair of pruners on hand to remove the lower fronds which naturally fade as the plant grows.

Description
For a stately and sturdy plant, look no further than the ancient Sago Palm, a member of the cycad family estimated to have been in existence since before the Jurassic period. The stiff, dark green leaves are held upright and surround a unique bulbous stem.
Native to Japan, the Sago Palm loves hot weather and prefers to dry out between waterings. Choose an area with the brightest possible light—a few hours of direct sunlight each day are preferred, but not required. As the plant grows from the top, it will naturally shed lower leaves. Feel free to snip these leaves close to the stem with a pair of pruners. Keep your Sago Palm away from curious children and pets as this plant is toxic if ingested.
