Anyone know why my palm always gets brown tips on the fronds? I end up cutting them away and new ones grow, but they eventually get brown? Any tips? No pun intended.

They like a lot of humidity. Maybe It's not humid enough?

Super dry air I live in Colorado and it’s super dry here I use like 3 humidifiers in my home to help with moisture or they do well in a brightly lit bathroom.

Ok. So it’s lack of humidity likely. We live in Ottawa Canada and winters are long, cold with lack of humid. Guess it’s not the best plant to nurture here. Thank you for comments.

My parlor Palm I have similar issues from time to time underwatering over watering, nutrient deficiency, quality of water I use filtered water for my plants, it just could be so many things with them 😩 I'm constantly misting mine I feel like it is less dry if I missed it pretty much daily or every other day
