# Palm trees help? Any one know If I should move them, I had pumpkins…

Palm trees help? Any one know If I should move them,

I had pumpkins that ended up molding from shade, did my Palm trees catch it? I had left the moldy pumpkins near them for days…. Uhm…

Should I cut the leaf off that is forming a rotten peel look?

It does look like fungus. It could be irregular watering too. Use a fungicide for the mold.

Are these Mexican Fan Palms? The like full sun and space around them, 4ft to 12ft apart. They can take partial shade until they are tall enough to reach above the fence like.

They are Washingtonia robustas and I do have a mix with a European fan palm, and a majestic palm tree.

Should I transplant them into a full sun location or do you think they won’t make the move ,

I’m not familiar with these varieties. Sorry. Check YouTube or google for more info on placement.
