cabbage palm

Question

We have a cabbage palm which is about 16 ft. We have had it about ten years now and really love the plant but it seems to be dropping its leaves. We always have large flower heads. The leaves turn brown and then we pull them off, as they don’t look very nice. If you have any ideas, I would be very grateful.

Many thanks
Mrs M Collington
