Canary Island Date Palms don't get enough magnesium or potassium in our soil/sand. For that you need to fertilize your palm March, June, and September with Lesco Palm Fertilizer 8-2-12 + 4. The "4" is magnesium. This fertilizer can be used on your lawn and shrubs but lawn fertilizer should not be used on your palms.
