I'm in zone 9. Just planted these Mexican fan palms this last week and they're yellowing and dying. They are getting 2.5 gallons of water every 2 days on drip. It's been pretty hot out in the 80s-90s F. I don't want them to die. 😔 They were perfectly healthy when we planted them.
Snapped on my phone last week. This is the dry season here they look much better in the wet season which is approaching soon 😃
Hey! New to palm keeping. Originally from the northeast and always wanted to have my own palm. Now in the Orlando area and I bought this majesty from Home Depot a month ago. I have it currently in my shaded patio, only outdoor area I have. I’ve been watering it whenever the first two inches of soil get dry. Any tips and recommendations for this type of palm in this area? Have done a lot of research into this palm with the motivation to keep it alive and healthy. When should I repot it? Does it look healthy from these recent pics? Will the Orlando cold snaps kill it? Thanks!
I live in Melbourne, FL and have had these sago palms in my courtyard since March. They were small then. I've never had them before but I fell in love with them because my brother has them planted in the backyard. They both produced a new big flush in early June. But from what I read they're only supposed to produce one during summer. I just noticed both are sprouting a new flush now in early October. Do sago palms start going dormant in November as temps cool and humidity drops? Is early October too late for another flush?
