As I drive around the Villages I see major investments in landscaping! Most of it is beautiful!
But SSSOOO many residents and so many landscapers have no idea why their palms branches and leaves are turning yellow or brown while the new shoots on top are nice and green! This is NOT a watering irrigation problem! Since we live in a mostly sand based dirt the needed nutrients are absent!
Please click on the link below for knowledge on how to treat your palms.
The key is adding heavy magnesium long term release fertilizer...do not use mass produced typical 10-10-10 lawn fertilizers. Our soil has plenty of potassium due to the limestone based sand. The middle number represents potassium so buy the smallest middle number you can. Most stores do sell palm tree fertilizer but they are normally not the best for our Sandy soil.

Good luck!
