Question: Hopefully you can help me with my houseplant problem. Recently I bought some indoor palms—discount specials—and have them in various places in my home and patio. However, they seem to be turning yellow at a fast pace, and I really don’t know what to do to them to keep them green. Any advice?
Answer: Sure: Stop buying discount store specials. When plants come from the grower’s greenhouse or an outdoor growing facility, they are typically in terrific shape. If you happen into the store on that day or maybe even the next week, you could get a good plant at an acceptable price.
