Dwarf Coconut Green

Coconuts don't like sustained wet feet or heavy soils, ideally you would procure old coconuts and husks to plant them in, last one I did I put 25 coconuts in the hole along with other goodies.

Dwarf Coconut Green

I bought this Coconut because I live in the Sub-tropics and believe it will fruit in this climate. In addition, a dwarf tree appeals as I do not like climbing ladders or Coconut trees. The Coconut arrived in good condition, ready to plant.

Dwarf Coconut Malay Green

I liked this plant because I grew up with coconut palms in my backyard when in Sri Lanka. Love the coconut water with the young flesh in it. I planted in a large pot without the bottom so I could bury the pot in the ground. I did this because my previous plant died after heavy rain. It was planted directly into the ground. Used sand and potting mix.
