Well I'm relieved. I've had replies from the UF extension folks and also a certified arborist and the consensus is that there is no disease present. They suspect a nutrient deficiency, possibly boron, which has been seen in some Washingtonians and other palms in TV. I'll keep and eye on them but I was told it would take a season or so to recover. I guess sabals are picky eaters for being such a common tree throughout the Southeast. Thanks to the members for the concern and suggestions.
