I am in zone 7 in Virginia, and my windmill palm is super happy. Mid August and it has already 15 new fronds for the year. But fast growth means thinner trunk, and I wonder if that's a problem down the line.
@CentralVirginiaJungle When you prune it tells the tree to direct energy to new growth. If the leaf is brown you should remove it. It also improves the appearance of the tree. I assume you fertilize.
@@2good2leaveunow Yes! The leaves at the bottom still are largely green so i’ll keep them around for a little longer. sooner or later they will turn brown naturally!
That's just a good looking healthy windmill palm. ❤😊

Do you prune the leaves?
i haven’t just yet! I don’t think i will this year, since it’s still on the smaller side, but i will revisit that topic again in a few months.
