dark spots on windmill fronds??!!!!
Comments (4)I think it might be leaf spot. Its caused by a fungus. The best way to lessen it is to keep the leaves dry and only water from the bottom. Also it could be pottasium deficency is you would need a fertilizer that is high in potassium. Good luck....See MoreTrimming Windmill fronds
Comments (3)I agree, if they are green keep them. I only cut off my fronds when they are brown, sometimes if the tips of the fronds get brown, I will cut the brown parts off to make the plant look a bit better without effecting the health of the plant much! Palms dont like to be over pruned, but many are! -Alex...See MoreChewed up windmill palm fronds dying.
Comments (2)I think it might be getting overwated. Dont water it for about a week and see what happens. And cut off all the yellow fronds so that way you can see if the yellow is spreading or if its just those fronds that decided to go. Sometimes palms drop a few fronds when their roots are disturbed and most of the time, they recover perfectly (and the newest leaves look very healthy on yours so far.)

Comments (1)You didn't use any weed killers around it, did you? These are great palms, hardy enough to survive in my yard year round in New Jersey! What was the soil like?? Like all palms, they need good drainage....See MoreUser
