I was given a fago palm as a gift and have never heard or seen one before. This plant is neither a palm nor a fern, even though it resembles them in its youth. It is a primitive, cone-bearing plant related to conifers. It is often referred to as a prehistoric pine tree relative.
Sago palms are good container plants and can be grown in the house, patio or garden.
It does not require special care and is hardy to about 15 degrees. There is a large planting of sago palms growing on the edge of the parking lot at Fountain Square Nursery on Greenback Lane in Citrus Heights. I have an almond tree that produces a good crop every year. The nuts are so bitter they're not edible. The tree is growing next to our property line and when the neighbors water their trees our tree also gets watered.
