I have a sick Madagascar palm and need help. I do not know how to use this site. My plant is losing its new growth in the center and turning brown. How do I find out what to do or how to fix my poor little guy (Bob). I have searched multiple sites and several discussions and haven’t found a solution. If anyone has an idea what is happening, please let me know. He (Bob) is 23 years old and have never seen this happen. Thanks!! ~ Lyn
To me it looks like it is starting to rot at the top, called crown rot. Try googling "pachypodium crown rot" to find various discussions on it and how to treat it. Here are a couple of example results Pachypodium lameri trouble How to remove rot from Madagascar palm?
