My sago palm. The bottom leaves are turning brown. Do i cut the bottom leaves off or leave them on? The top leaves are green only problem the bottom leaves are yellow. What do i add to make my sago leaves green again? San Antonio Tx.
I have a sago palm?
This is a natural part of the growth process for most palms (even though a Sago Palm is technically a cycad and not a palm,it has same growth pattern). As the palm puts out new growth on the top of the plant it sheds a few of its lower fronds (or leaves). Just trim them off to keep plant looking nice. Also cut any "pups" or baby sagos that develop at the base of the trunk. You can replant these if you want to try to grow them.
Reply:This is usually normal. Trim the bottom ones off.
Reply:I keep the "dead" fronds trimmed off.
Reply:Cut them off.. As with ANY palm.. the bottom leaves start turning brown and when they do.. cut them off
Reply:I had a Sago palm. It died. I think I may have over-watered it. I would remove the brown leaves and take care to water it lightly maybe once a week. It likes a lot of light, so keep it near a sunny window.
