Sago Palm Trees

Q.My sago palm leaves have all turned yellow. I replanted it back into pot. Should I cut yellow leaves off?

There are no bugs on the plant, it got drowned in the front yard. I think I may have planted it too deep, then the rains came and it turned yellow! I repotted it more shallowly and gave it Miracle grow…not too much. I just wondered is it ok to cut the yellow leaves off and hope for new growth?

It's best to leave them to absorb nutrients. If they turn brown, you can go ahead and remove them.
