Can we search our own questions in this fourm?
Such as I have done a post about palm trees in the past and I wanted to reopen it to add new questions.
I often find myself looking for old post forever. . I was just hoping someone had an Idea to help me find those quicker.. if possible? Thanks

I forgot the real name. I've never gotten these to look very good. They always have brown foliage, little yellowing. Grows well it seems I've never seen either of the 3 stop producing leaves on a regular basis. Idk why or what there so picky about.
I also remember someone saying "there not real palm trees?)
I would just like to make them a little happier.
Thanks for every ones time!!!! Happy gardening!

A couple things. I believe , larger pots are in order. 2nd. Every year, the bottom frawns will die and need to be pruned.
Also, cut any suckers from bottom or trunk out. They can be rooted, if you want more trees.

Anything i say, could be misrepresented, or wrong.

Pamela, Your (I am thinking) Ravenea rivularis (aka majesty palm) look pretty good. They do like to be fed, as they are heavy feeders. They are often sold as house plants but are not the best choice for indoor palms. They require high humidity and strong light. With that being said I grew 2 plants when I lived in VA. They spent the summers outside on the pool deck and pulled inside just before frost . I placed them at my south facing patio door and misted daily during their inside stay.
When I moved to FL they were set free and have reached for the sky.

Great info thanks and great pic too. Nice!!
Id love more!!!" So I'm gonna have to research now.. ok what about food. I didnt think they would like micro grow every few months like most my other plants do. Id only given them micro grow 2 times in 2 years now. I believe maybe but its was very weak amounts. Again i didnt know they would like it so I worried about over feeding them.

Look at your profile page, see posts made by you, go to threads started by you...
from there use the Control F and add the word...such as 'palm' to find what you are seeking.

I did that and searched for 'palm' and found this one:
