Queen Palm

Is Queen Palm toxic or non-toxic? We just moved to Phoenix, AZ, and have four in our yard.

 Dear Andrea,

There is currently no data indicating that Queen Palm (Cocos plumose or Syagrus romanzoffiana) has toxic potential to pets. However, it’s important to keep in mind that even plants considered to be non-toxic can produce minor stomach upset if ingested. Therefore, it’s still a good idea to discourage your pets from nibbling on them.
