Bought a coconut palm... need help with getting things going.

So, i was at Myirles today and saw the palm right there. I wanted one so I bought it and when i got it back home and realized I didn't really know anything about growing them. I had better luck with the cold hardy palms than tropical palms.

If you are looking for a larger one , I have seven gallon ones for $45, plus shipping. The Brazoria palmetto is on the right, with a 'Cape Hatteras' Sabal minor on the left. These are in five gallon containers but seven gallon size is similar. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t281/Stevea07/Palms%...
