Windmill Palm Update

A younger windmill palm that had endured its first unprotected DC Winter (a cold one this year) is maintaining its green fronds but has not shown any other signs of life since losing its central growth spear. This is just an update – I haven’t given up on it yet.

But while I’m on the topic of sickly plants, my recently purchased European Fan Palm (C. Humilis) which arrived with a moldy central growth spear is starting to show signs of leaf wilt. I’m giving it one or two more weeks and then calling the nursery to send a replacement.
