Hello,

I recently purchased some King Palms from Costco, they are multi trunk about 12 feet tall. I planted them about 1 month ago and they are not looking so good. The leaves are starting to turn brown and some look like they are dead. I do notice some new growth small green spears growing from the centers of some trunks. Someone said they are sun burned? and say they will recover. I water them about every 1 1/2 weeks, they sit in full sun most of the day. I'm concerned about the way they are looking. I also purchased from Costco 2 Pygmy Date Palms, they are about 4 to five feet in height, and planted them about the same time and they are looking wonderful. I live in Southern California near the coast, with warm conditions during the day and mildly cool evenings that are warming up. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

You needto water new plants more often until they get established.


I love the sweet scents wafting in the breeze. I stop to admire the vibrant colors of all living things. And people think me odd. Then ODD I am!!!
