Signs of Cold Stress in Salak palm
Symptoms
Salak palm favors warm conditions and cannot withstand low temperatures. It flourishes optimally when temperatures exceed 77℉. In winter, it should be maintained above 68℉. If the temperature drops below 50℉, foliage may lose some color. Following frost damage, the leaves progressively turn brown or black, and signs like wilting and drooping might appear.
Solutions
Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm setting for protection from cold. Position the plant near a south-facing window to ensure sufficient sunlight. Furthermore, avoid placing it near heating units or air conditioning vents to prevent excessive air dryness.
