Gmaj..Billy Rae didn't say or imply you were an idiot. Rhizo is correct, you did say you watered your palm within a week..If you reread the first line you wrote, 'I've purchased an indoor palm just a week or so ago, and it's already turning yellow. I've only watered it twice.' It'd be helpful if you could ID the palm. Some palms need more light than others. An east window doesn't provide much light, let alone if it's in a corner. Do you have a brighter window, or can you set your palm before the east window? ID'ing the pot size would be helpful too. If you bought a small palm, in a say 4" pot, and if your house is dry, watering twice a week might be needed, but if the pot is 10"+, and getting little sun, most likely the soil was still moist/wet when you watered a second time which could be the reason fronds yellowed. You're correct about your palm growing in a humid, green house, shipped to a store, then your house..Plants can go through shock...so the best thing is to set your palm in a brighter light, water when soil feels dry, mist leaves daily, and/or shower/hose weekly. You'll notice a difference in no time..Toni

Quite honestly I do absolutely nothing to take care of mine. It is in full sun light. I don't even fertilize it and it is big and healthy. The only thing to be careful of are the seeds which like all parts of this plant are highly toxic. This plant can kill a dog withing a couple of weeks after ingestion of seeds or leaves. The poison causes liver failure and eventual death. If you have young children or curious pets, be careful of where you plant this plant. Also, understand that the seeds will not only be under the plant, they will be spread all over your yard by rodents and birds that are attracted to them because of their color.

To better understand these hearty trees, one must go back to its origin, the tropical soil of the Gulf Coast and Brazil. Queen palm trees were elected to move to the desert because they are a non-aggressive rooter, hearty enough to withstand the dramatic change in climate. Through Bio-Engineering we have determined the reason why many treatments have had little effect on the health of these palms, the problem is that queen palms have been treated with formulations designed for native palms. Corrective solutions must begin at the root ball with a nutrient mixture designed for queen palms, an area that we specialize in with proven treatment to bring your tree back to full health.

This is a hard species to keep happy indoors⦠they need a lot more light there there normally is indoors, and prefer high humidity (at least higher than in a house, which is normally super low), and do NOT like to be sitting in slaggy soil. PUt rocks at the bottom of the pot does not aid in drainage, but can actually do the opposite. Soil should be very well draining and can dry out a bit ,but should never get bone dry. These eventually resent tap water, too. Need to take outdoors frequently and run a LOT of water through the soil to flush the salts that are being retained in it. Sorry you live in a climate that does not allow you to plant this one outdoorsâ¦. is a great plant out there if you live in a zone 9b or above. I have struggled with this one indoors, myself, and found I just have to give up after a whileâ¦. have seen in it pretty 'ideal' indoor situations at other homes, too, and still unhappy.
