Sago Palm?

Aug 22, 2003 6 Replies

I live in So. Cali. and my 2 sagos are turning yellow, is this normal or something going wrong with my palms?


Cycas revoluta is NOT a palm. In S CA they are heavy Mn feeders. If the "fronds" are completely yellow it is likely an over or under watering problem.

Examine closely for scale.... one suggestion.

I'd go for under watered, I live in the U.K., known as a green and pleasant land Our sago's had suffered this year due to lack of rain until I set up a trickle system with an old hose pipe punctured in the right places, new growth now nice and green

That would pretty classic of manganese deficient.

Epsom salt is Mn magnesium sulphate, Cycas revoluta more often need Mn manganese.
