Queen palms
Some Queen palms blew down, others were damaged when frond bases cracked and broke. The broken green fronds should be left on the palm until several new fronds emerge and older ones turn brown. Removed the brown ones as they turn brown.
Remove brown dead fronds, but leave the hanging green ones attached to the palm.
