Queen palm


South Carolina palms

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know what I could do to my queen palm. I sprayed it with liquid copper fungicide, and it looks worse than it previously did.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I think it’s a goner. Are there mature queen palms in your area? Charleston seems too far north for these to be viable.

Pour some household hydrogen peroxide in the center.  If it bubbles up then you have a crown infection.  Copper fungicide, hydrogen peroxide, Mancozed, and Daconil can all help cure crown infections.

Been applying a H2O2+Daconil mixture on my Mule seedling and it seems to be growing again, albeit very very slowly.

I wouldn't waste time on it.  Try getting a new young, one  doesn't really matter how small. Keep them very well watered and remember they are very greedy for food too. These palms are much maligned (in fact where I now live they are a declared noxious weed) but a well cared Queen is magnificent and very, very quick growers. If there is an unwanted one around, they transplant very easily too.
