Please help me with this! I got a Kentia Palm about two and a half months ago from Home Depot. It is about 6 feet tall and came in a 5 gallon bucket which it is still in. Every since I have had it, all of the smaller outer leaves have been slowly turning brown and drying up. I water it as soon as the soil gets dry, and it is in the middle of a room that has a bunch of windows but it is not in direct sunshine. How much water does it need? (oz's) Does it need any direct sunlight? Because it is so tall, the very top leaves are barely grazed by the air from the heating vent, but that doesn't seem to be significant enough to effect it in this way. All the browning leaves are at the bottom of the plant. The leaves are not browning from the tips, but more so overall just slowly turning brown-green then to completely brown. Attached are a couple of pictures. PLEASE HELP! I got this as a very special birthday present, it is a center piece in my living room, and I love this plant very much and want to have it healthy for a long time! Thank you very much :)

I don't know what is causing the dry tips, but that does not look like a kentia palm to me. It looks like a majesty palm.

That pot is way too small Donna. Ooooh Donna,you need to pot it up.lol. Its dropping fronds with not enough water getting to the fronds. I take it- that pot is not as deep as the photo makes it to be? That's an ornamental covering the real pot?

Keeping that palm in a pot without a drain hole is a sure way of killing it. You need to get it out of there immediately and repot it in a pot with a drain hole and fast draining potting mix..
