Hello! I need help with my areca palm. I don't now why it's falling like this. Should I use a tutor? I never seen an areca palm with a tutor. Also are these little spots normal? Thank you so much!

Almost seems that it's not sufficiently anchored by the roots. Is this a recent transplant?

Does that pot have any drain holes or do those artificially clumped juvenile palms sit in water constantly? A palm sitting in stagnant water with no drainage is subject to root rot, which can be fatal. Your pots must have drainage and should never sit in leftover water. I suggest you repot yours in a new pot with plenty of drain holes with fresh, coarse, light potting mix not cheap black discount store soil. Never let the pot sit in leftover water. Be careful not to overwater your palms.

Welcome to PalmTalk. The palms you are calling "Arecas" have nothing to do with the Asian genus Areca. It is important to learn the scientific names rather than depend only on confusing common names. That said, the just-too-cute common name of your palms is "Golden Cane palm." Its scientific name is "Chrysalidocarpus lutescens" (formerly Dypsis lutescens)
