Diagnosis

Diagnose: Majesty Palm Yellow Leaves

Follow these steps to identify and confirm the problem.

  1. The frond position separates normal aging from active stress
  2. Start at the center spear and work downward. One oldest bottom frond yellowing slowly can retire normally, several soft lower fronds above wet soil point toward oxygen-starved roots, a light dry pot supports drought stress, and pale or distorted new growth needs a light, root, or nutrient check. Narrow crisp tips on otherwise green leaflets belong to the brown-tip diagnosis.
