Are Majesty Palms poisonous


Question
I 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.

Answer
Danielle,

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.
