One of my prized Cham tenellas has several leaves turning splotchy yellow/brown. What causes this and how do I treat it? I've sprayed it with Ortho organic fungicide to start with but before I do anything else I want to know what I'm dealing with. And I don't want it to spread. Please help.

Meg-

Cut off the mostly brown fronds, and take it out of that pot. I can't see too well, but it looks like it does not drain well. Repot it in faster draining soil. I would do this completely bareroot, and you can always use fungicide while the roots are exposed (diluted of course)...
