Foxtail Palm Sunburn After Winter: Gradual Reacclimation


foxtail yellowing
Original: Favorite palm has yellowing leaves. Recently put outside, nights upper 40s, days 60s. Cause? Too much rain?

Follow-up 1: Eased out for few days but chilly nights (40s). Thought bright sun best. Will it die?

Follow-up 2: Move to afternoon shade; after new fronds emerge, acclimate to full sun gradually.

Follow-up 3: Good news—new fronds on all damaged palms! Transplanted into new soil (perlite/peat/potting mix)—bad idea due to stress? Did anyway thinking early spring helps.

Follow-up 4: "Whatever works is right!" You handle your plants well—be patient, don't change too much.
