Really simple, just water it and if it is potted make sure to add fertilizer form time to time... like every 3-6 months and dont over water it. Also make sure it get some sun. Thats all you really have to worry about with the Trachycarpus wagnerianus. They are an Awesome and cute palm. Take CARE of it! let us know how it is doing? are you going to plant in the ground? I would acclimate it first let is get used to the cold weather.

You live in Florida so you don't have to worry about cold. An established Waggie will take zone 6 without leaf damage so you're fine in that respect. Water every 2-3 days at first if you planted it in the ground and then back off after about 2 weeks. Water only during dry spells after that and you should be good to go. Be patient, they are slow growers.
