The propagation of palm trees is mainly carried out by sowing. When the fruits are ripe, they are picked. When they are dried, the seeds are taken out. It is better to sow them immediately. Soak the seeds in warm water for a whole day, and the seeds after germination are easier to germinate. Prepare suitable nutrient soil, put seeds into the soil, cover a layer of 3cm soil, and then water once every 2-3 days.
