Palm Leaves(Washingtonia Robusta)

17 years ago

I know these leaves can bend and all from wind, but mine has 2 newer leaves that are bent and had gotten ripped from wind but the older leave hasnt? is it because its just older and is stronger? Oh and does this have any affect on the palm itself? Or is it just natural? Anyway to prevent this or anything?

Put it in a place thats not windy,mine took about three new leaves last year before they were strong enough to handle the wind.Same thing with the banana plants-
