Q.Sago Palm Problem

Anonymous added on January 19, 2011 | Answered

I was given a sago palm in a pot as a house warming present five years ago. It had four leaves originally.  A couple of years ago it grew two more, but six months ago, one by one, all the leaves turned yellow and I was told to remove these leaves.  I have only one left, which has now gone yellow too. Have I ruined it? Will it grow again? What should I do now? Should it be planted in the garden?

It does sound like it has died. This article will help you tell for sure:

It was likely a lack of light that did this. In the future, if you get another one, place it in a brighter location.
