A very intriguing and intresting palm the socratea. From South America making for a palm that suits my climate only on the cooler side and not as tropical but there are a lot of palms from high altitude that do well in the subtropics. I have had it survive a winter in the greenhouse so there is some hope and the only way to find out is plant on3 in the ground in a sun trap position with large rocks forming part of the embankment that I have landscape. Hopefully a bit of thermal mass and the warm sun trap position might be a helping hand in it growing, its a very protected spot giving it the  best chance I can and being near the house water water and more water in the dry times shall be near by easily. One can only try!
