Pruning palm trees or as it is sometimes called, trimming palms, is an important part of the care for your palm trees.
Green palm leaves, or fronds, are the palm’s sole source of food (from photosynthesis). Fertilizer is NOT food, but a source of micronutrients the palm uses, along with water and sunlight to make its food. When green leaves are removed, the palm cannot make the ideal amount of food it needs to survive. Fortunately most palms are quite tolerant of this ‘abuse’ and can deal with sub-optimal amounts of green leaves… up to a point.
Proper care includes that some clumping palms may need to be thinned out or new growth pruned off if the Palm Trees are getting too big for the space in which the Palms are growing.
