I don't know much of anything about plants or gardening in general. About the best I can do is keep from over or underwatering, and tossing some plant food in there as needed.

That said, the crown(?) of the plant seemed to have gotten too heavy and the whole thing kind of flopped over, and kinked the stem in the process. I propped it up with a stick, but the fronds(?) started dying off.

I'm not sure if I should cut it off below the kinked part, since I don't even know if it would grow back. Is there anything else I should be doing?

Sorry about the camera work, my hands don't always behave the way I want them to.
