We dug out a couple of Fan Palms the other day and planted them in our back yard. We have given them a lot of water but they are not looking happy! We are from NY and gardening is very different there. Can you shed some light on what we can do to help these plants survive?
Please Help with transplanting Fan Palms (Florida)?
Hi Free Thinker!
These articles may be of use to you. And just so you know, my elephant ears have been doing poorly for two months and I've just NOW been able to redig them and give them some good compost mixed in. They should be fine now, as long as I water them enough....So don't feel bad!
