    hi,

    I am worried about my cordyline palms, they seem to be suffering see pics. The leafes are crumbling at the tips.

    Anything I can do?
    I pulled some dead leafes last Feb, was this a mistake?

    thanks

    All looks normal to me GL, the leaves only last a couple of years or so and start to look tatty before dying.
    Once dead you can just pull them off the stem.
    The new growth this summer will look better. [​IMG]

    Looks fine to me. as Pete says they do get tatty with age.....wind etc.
    If it were me i would pull off the lower leaves - and tatty ones too.
