Anyway, some of the leaves are drying out. How can I save this little guy? Ive never really had a problem with this type of tree before but ive never really had a baby one either. The trees were together in a little pot and I repotted them. you cant really see the Palm in here[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v729/mo mmabear3604/easter030.jpg[/IMG] Quote \| Reply \| Report

Jk Have you checked your soil ph? I really dont know anything about them, just wondering. Quote \| Reply \| Report

I water them about twice a week and the other palm that is in the same pot seems to be doing fine other than the brown tips. I have no idea how to check the ph Quote \| Reply \| Report

I lost mine in the move and must get another one. Meanwhile stick yer index finger in the soil and see how far down it is dry before ye water. Good Luck! Quote \| Reply \| Report
