Most helpful! Just returned to Uk crim Singapore and have become fascinated by palms - I now have them at home in pots in the garden awaiting the summer to watch them flourish and grow 😊 ❤
I've got a potted trachy that just came in 3 weeks ago and it's bottom leaves are yellowing fast. Most of them are browning on the edges and turning yellow from the tips to eventually the petioles. I also have a leaf that looks closer to the one just starting to yellow on your washy. The crown is pushing out new leaves vigorously though and they look perfect. I can't take it outside cause it's super windy here and keeps falling over so it stays inside under a 400 watt light. It seems to appreciate water but I'm so scared to water it. Do you think it's ok to water more often? Haven't fertilized yet either.
If you’re unsure how much water they need just use an ollas pot. As the soil starts to dry out the water from the pot will leech into the soil. The plant will take what it needs when it needs fed. All you have to do is check the water level in the ollas pot when it gets low and fill it as needed.
Hi, my Mexican Fan Palm is doing well but it has dried, yellow leaf tips. It was doing really well, but now in winter the growth is slowing down, which is normal, but the bottom leaves are starting to turn brown just in the edges. We have not had any hard freezes that it would be damaged. I have noticed on the back of the leaves there are lots of flies. What could this be a problem with? Even though growth has slowed down this winter, it has still opened 1 or 2 leaves, so I’m not super worried about it. Im hoping that when Spring comes it will get better. Please let me know what could be wrong.
I have recently bought two Trachycarpus Forunei Palms and haven't watered them for a week as it's raining every other day. I've noticed my leaves are also drooping midway and the new shoots are brown and patchy. I have also used chicken manure pellets as fertilizer twice in 3 weeks. They are currently in pots. Any advice would be appreciated. I am from the UK. Thanks in advance.
I have just pulled one of these from beneath my hedge. To my knowledge it ha been horizontal since we purchased the house 5 years ago. It is around 8 feet long with several leaf fans. The plant has been laying sideways along the ground beneath the hedge. We decided to pull it out to see if we could erect it in the garden. When it was finally dragged out we found that it has obviously been cut down as at the base is basically a trunk about 9 inches in diameter, no roots, just a sawn through trunk. The plant appears healthy with about a dozen fan like leaves. I assume it's been getting its nutrients from the main trunk being in contact with the ground as it has no apparent roots? Should we just dig a hole and put it in, or should we shorten the trunk a little first?
Well i had 2 of my palms transplanted in the ground over 2 weeks ago. They were green with healthy roots no sign of yellowing and now they turned yellow and lost most of the bottom fronds. The under watering is not the reason,because i have the grass sprinkles that reaches them and waters them everyday. They are fertilized as usual,nothing new so i guess in my case would be the over watering...?! What do you think ?
Thank u for making this video. I have a Mexican Fan Palm, around six years old, that my wife recently had moved from the front yard to the back. It’s been about a week and I got seven fronds turning yellow and dropping like in your video. Any advice on how to save it? I’m watering it a lot, I read fertilizer could burn the roots...
Torque Ninja did you transplant it from the backyard ? was it growing in the ground or was it in a pot ? If it was in the ground just cut off most of the leaves except for one or two in the center and just water the crap out of it
Thanks for the info man. I've got a braha armata I'm growing inside, small about 3 foot. Looking at your Vlog I think I must be underwatering it. I just assumed it would like the taste of the desert! Great Vlog man. Cheers
Hi James, I love your channel man. I used to be on the FB zone pushers page for 5+ years and I found out about you from there. This video was helpful. I used to zone push when I lived in Detroit, then Columbus, I gave up when I moved to Grand Rapids, but now I live by Raleigh NC. I recently bought a potted 25 Gallon Washingtonia robusta, and quickly (within 1 week) 4 leaves turned yellow. I’m assuming from your videos I’m not watering it enough and not a deep enough soaking. I just cut the 4 fronds and gave it a deep soaking. It’ll be in the 80+ degree area for the next few days, soaking it everyday won’t be an issue? Thanks again
I really need help my chinese fan palms has started turning mushy it's so strange the leaves are now to crinkled and shriveled yet kinda mushy I'm struggling to find sources to help me figure out what wrong it's not discoloured as one point it wasnt humid enough but since then I've misted it regularly and trimmed the brown tips leaving a boarder between the green foliage I'm really concerned I don't want it to die
A few of my seedlings have yellow and brown edges to their fronds and I'm not sure why. One of them looks fine, I think I need to give them more sun, they seemed to become unhappy once they were inside for a while.
Hay James I'm interested in trying a Majesty Palm again in my sunny apartment windows but I have killed 3 trees do to yellow leaf and spider mites I'm thinking I should spray the whole tree with garden pest soap spray and Epsom salt for to prevent yellow when I first get the plant😀
Matthew Whitted if I were you I would consider reporting it in a large pot and fertilizing it keeping the soil moist to avoid yellowing and add supplemental light like a LED grow light and then of course making sure that has no spider mites when it comes in if it has one they will multiply into millions
i recently put mine in a deep tall pot and i had it out in full sun and the leaves are starting to close up and droop and turn yellow. what do i need to do ? Please help.
I would probably recommend that you pull all the soil off of the pot wash off the roots hydrogen peroxide the root ball if there is any rotting cut it away
@@TheJames2929 brown . I repotted it with new moisture control dirt . I was scared to shake all the dirt off of roots bc I didn’t want to break them. Will the roots be yellow ? What exactly should I be looking for ?
Big Brick if you’re in Atlanta I don’t think so I have seen them in south Georgia like Valdosta I think if you did a very quick easy protection method perhaps even just a tarp over it in the winter time with all the leaves cut off I think he would be fine I think if you just left it on its own it would probably die after a year or two but if you protect it especially when it’s small it might make it for a long time I have successfully growing for three years now in the ground in zone six so it’s definitely possible with the right protection. I think you would only have to really protect it for a couple of days just some Christmas lights and a tarp for the winter would be all you would need
I leave mine outside in England through winter and noticed the palms in thin plastic pots died (the roots started to rot) but the palms in thick clay pots were ok . Love this channel 👍

James, what would make the new palm fronds coming out to have brown stems and on the inside of the leaf? This is a 7 year old Mediterranean. 3 trunks

I would not soak it every day once or twice a week should be more than fine
Thanks buddy so much for your nice comment
I’ve been cutting yellows off today off my washys today I’m going to step up my watering game
Eric Thompson yeah it’s not a big deal it doesn’t seem to hurt them in the spring they’ll grow lots more
I agree
Thank you!!

PalmTreeDude yes that can also happen from too much direct sun on certain plants not so much on washy they usually like full sun
@@TheJames2929 Yeah, I'm not sure what's wrong with it

Thanks for the info James I just got Her last night from my local Super Market for $12.99
Matthew Whitted nice
@@TheJames2929 hi James any idea why my trackc car leaves splitting cheers
“It’s not a cactus”. LOL. Replay, LOL
🌵: “Im not a palm tree”
My majesty palm has brown tips then yellow. Does it need a fan for more air ? Is off to the side by a East facing windows. It’s not in the sun
Valley if it’s not too much sun then I would say lack of humidity try Misting it with spray bottle more often
SPEAK UP!!!
I could hear him, turn ur volume up
Did you record the audio with a calculator?
Bro use Mick or speek loud your talking tone is so slow
whats that fuzzy stuff
i recently put mine in a deep tall pot and i had it out in full sun and the leaves are starting to close up and droop and turn yellow. what do i need to do ? Please help.
Same, did you know what to do about it?
What if then turning brown coming out of the tree
My plant is dying at a rapid rate . Over 2 weeks 3 leaves are turning yellow and brown . Looks like a fall leaf . Idk if my house is too hot
No it’s definitely not too hot in your house has it been out of sunlight for a very long time ?
I would probably recommend that you pull all the soil off of the pot wash off the roots hydrogen peroxide the root ball if there is any rotting cut it away
@@TheJames2929 brown . I repotted it with new moisture control dirt . I was scared to shake all the dirt off of roots bc I didn’t want to break them. Will the roots be yellow ? What exactly should I be looking for ?
And I just bought it . It did ok for a week then bam downhill. I’m assuming my house conditions isn’t good .
Will this palm survive in Atlanta. I think growing zone 8a
Big Brick if you’re in Atlanta I don’t think so I have seen them in south Georgia like Valdosta I think if you did a very quick easy protection method perhaps even just a tarp over it in the winter time with all the leaves cut off I think he would be fine I think if you just left it on its own it would probably die after a year or two but if you protect it especially when it’s small it might make it for a long time I have successfully growing for three years now in the ground in zone six so it’s definitely possible with the right protection. I think you would only have to really protect it for a couple of days just some Christmas lights and a tarp for the winter would be all you would need
Big Brick you can definitely grow quite a few different kinds of palm trees there. you are quite lucky for that growing zone. Cheers 🍻🌴
