Parlor Palm drooping

A new limp appearance across several fronds needs a moisture check. One naturally arching frond does not show that the palm needs water.

Dry root ball

Water slowly and drain. A crowded root ball may remain dry inside after quick runoff; check its center. Repot only if roots have displaced most of the mix and watering has become difficult.

Wet root ball

Remove collected runoff and give bright indirect light. Inspect roots if droop continues with yellowing or soft bases. Avoid a large pot around a damaged root system, and retain the living crown on each stem.
