I live in Dallas, TX and have a Windmill Palm that has been doing quite well for the last 3 years until recently.
It is planted in the ground in our backyard and receives partial sun and is watered as well as fertilized regularly.
Recently one of the new fronds poked up but not nearly as far as previous ones have.
Then the frond spread out without gaining any more height (the frond came up just far enough to spread completely).
2 more fronds have now poked up but not as far and they are now spreading (note these fronds are still partially in the trunk and are not able to spread completely).The palm looks fine and appears to be in good health. We also have a Mexican Fan in our backyard that is doing very well with no signs of problems.
Any idea what's going on here? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
TIA!
