Pindo palm with long thread like growths coming from fronds?
Those are leftover from the inflorescence. You can leave them or cut them off when blooming or fruiting is finished without harming the palm.
Hurricane IDA was nice enough to plant a very large pine tree on top of half of my mature Pindo palm heart. About 25% of the heart is crushed and the flesh is visible. What can I do to bring this tree back to health? Thank you!
That damage is severe. Likely, what will happen is, new pups will grow from the base to take over the original palm. This is typical with severe damage. Should this not happen within a season, you may look to replacing it. Either way, the larger trunk must be cut back, fully. Just wait to do so after you see new growth, or full death.

Just to make sure I understand: You are saying there is no hope for this Pindo, ie.. it is going to die? Correct? Pups will not make a specimen tree that this tree was. Won't they grow up angled from the trunk, etc? And take for ever?
Should I remove the remaining frowns? Or does it matter? How long will it take to decline?
Thank you.
How do I adjust watering if my newly planted palms got that much water the first day?
They like moist soil but it must be well draining. If it drains well, it won't hurt it to get extra water occasionally. Let it begin to dry before watering again.
