here is another picture

one more. and i'll try getting some better ones later.

Washy roots die back to the trunk when damaged.

Do not leave it out in the cooler weather,the sun
may be good for it but the roots need constant warmth to recover...
they also do not do well inside so,nurse it through until spring/summer
warmth and don't over water it,water well (if it drains well)and then let it dry out.

I have been leaving it inside since October when it started getting cooler. Also I must say my palm is doing quite nice in doors, it looks healthier than it did when i pulled it out of the ground in california lol. and the a new frond has been growing quite rapidly ever since i got it in the new planter. As for the watering, I water it once the soil gets dry, by spraying the soil/bark mixture and the fronds with a small water mister with room temp water, every few days, and it is looking blush and green and doing well! I will have a camera soon and will post some more pictures once a some new fronds pops out.

Also, is spraying the fronds bad for this palm? I don't over do it, just a couple sprays per frond every few days. Doesn't seem to be hurting it.

They don't need the spray-if they can live in Phoenix in the blazing sun
mist spraying isn't needed (-:

Sounds like it is recovering-it should take off next year outside,
the only thing is,they are one palm that likes some room for their roots.

That is what figured, they are all over the place in Las Vegas and they look fantastic. It is bone dry out there, and hotter than all hell lol. But yah I will stop doing that.
ill keep you up to date too. thanks for the replys bro (:

Oh and I also have seen around to keep it on the South East part of your house, where it gets sun. So that is what it has defiantly gotten a bit bigger in the past two weeks. I want to get some Trachycarpus palms, there are quite a few that I like. Also some Banana's would be nice too. My only problem is I gotta goto the Sacramento area to get palms, it's the closets place that has them.

Thats closer than where I go-US mail.

So I just realized a couple of days ago that my Palm trunk was burried about 1in 1/2 under the dirt. The tips were starting to brown, and the new frond emerging was turning yellow/brown. It's only been two days so I don't know if the green will start coming back. But I'm sure hoping so. I know that couldn't have been good for my palm, and I'm sure the new frond probably would have come out by now if the trunk hadn't been burried.

Sorry the pics aren't very good quality I had to use a webcam.

looks fine

It's growing extremely slow. Checked for root root, it does not have that. I'm thinking that it is growing slow because it is indoors? I keep lamp on it for most hours of the night, and put it in the window in the south-east part of the house first thing in the morning.

The reason that I am concerned, is because I cut one of those fronds off very low. I'm hoping that this does not effect the plant.

My questions are;
My sister lives in Palm Springs, CA and she said that I should not use soil. However, I came across some soil, should I use it, or should I listen to her? The main question is, Is this palm even still alive? Fronds were cut within the past week.

Comments: The reason that I am concerned is because at the base of the new frond, it's pretty white/tinted yellow an extremely light green, it looks like it is turning darker green but I guess only time can tell.
