Can I save this Palm?

9 years ago

I just picked up this 7 gallon Spindale Palm on clearance for $20. It's not looking great but I'll give it a try. I took pictures I tookin my I took pictures from my car I apologize but the nursery was closing car as I'm in a hurry. Any idea if its salvageable?

Depends on what's going on with the rootball. It looks like some roots are damaged and there's very little potting soil in the pot.

You got a GREAT deal. All it needs is TLC...fill in with a good quality potting mix,put a saucer under it,and give it bright shade as it recovers. I hear they make great indoor palms over wintered.

Where are you? Is it for indoors,outdoors or a lifetime pot?
