Sprouted Coconut Palm Tree Plant

It is growing. It took to the ground right away. Would buy again

Just got it so time will tell. Packaged very well. Arrived in great shape and came potted in a pot with soil. I thought it would just be the coconut by itself, as I have seen in person.No instructions, don't know if the soil is really necessary. I have seen others just growing from the coconut with around 4 feet of growth!

I'm disappointed in the state that the coconut showed up in. I was really excited based on the reviews I seen and it showed up earlier than I expected. However when I opened it up, it was tiny, brown, and shriveled up. I took a picture of it next to a regular oconut I bought at the store without its husk for comparison. There is no way this coconut will survive. Ill be suprised if it is still alive. I have ordered live plants through Amazon before and they show up I'm good condition, ok condition at worst. But this is unacceptable.

As a child, visiting Florida to see grandparents, I fell in love with palm trees in general. Once I saw a coconut palm I pleaded with my father to retrieve a coconut for me. In Rhode Island, he split it with an axe and I had its contents for dessert and that was that.But, what if that coconut received the conditions it needed to become its own baby tree? I got that answer when I picked up a white bag (like you’d get clothing delivered in) from my concierge. It had an awkward shape, bulbous at the bottom and padded with bubble wrap. I searched my memory for what the hell I’d ordered that lined up with this thing in my hands.The first cut revealed its tall mast of foliage and I laughed aloud instantly flooded by memories of both what I’d ordered and my childhood April vacations. Here it was. A grayish seed with its palm coming out from one end and thick roots. It looked vaguely damp, and I gave it a shower in a big Pyrex bowl for the first time.That was in June and I’ve enjoyed it since then. Some little gnats had hitchhiked on this seed but I’ve since killed them using a diluted neem oil spray and some touch up tea tree oil water sprays. Some white fuzzy spots appeared and disappeared just as quickly by rubbing an alcohol wipe over them quickly.I’ve heard this palm will not survive in the long haul but my enclosed photo in planter is from today (8/9/2020) and I’m enjoying its unique wide, ribbed fronds. I may have to invest in grow lights for the winter but should it last that long I would be willing to do that.It’s a neat plant and if I had a patio I would let it receive bright, unfiltered sunlight to bask in. Currently it lives by my giant mill windows happily enough.

Exactly as pictured and secured in box! Thanks!

When I got the palm, it was beautiful, I made sure that I follows the planting instructions, now the leaves are turning brown and curling and the smell from the coconut smells moldy. I bought palm dirt and I have it in a BIG planter and the coconut is not buried completely all the way in the dirt. and it is sitting in front of a big window with sunlight for Oregon it has been a bit warmer then usual around 82 degrees. I water around every 3 days. I do not over water, what am I doing wrong can anyone tell me if I need to do anything different ?

Looking forward to growing it. Awesome packaging. Wish there were instructions on what to do next

The media could not be loaded. Came just like marketed online ! Will buy another one soon. Somethings are worth the pricy penny and this is one of them.
