QuestionI recently bought a Majesty Palm (Ravenea rivularis) and started researching it. One site said something about it's seed being poisonous if ingested and on further research I found a site that said that it was not poisonous. Which is the correct answer? I have it planted outdoors just to see if I can grow it and if it does make it I don't want o poison my dogs or cats. Thank you for your help.
AnswerDanielle,
I have done an extensive search and found no sites that say that a Majesty Palm is poisonous, seeds or plants. The site I trust the most, the ASPCA listed below does not list it as a poisonous plant. Leave it in your yard and don't worry about it. Below are my 2 favorite sites for reference.

Good luck.
