Areca Palm \’deformities\’

Question

Our indoor palm has been doing really well this last year and a half, after a near death experience. However, recently, the new ‘fronds’ that have come out look kind of like firm slightly crimped string. Any idea what is going on?

Answer 1

It would seem that you have a severe pH issue. Dolomitic lime can help here. This will help the pH return back to a more suitable level.
