Does anyone have tips on how to avoid the tips of my cat palm from turning brown? I keep trimming them and new branches keep growing but they all keep turning brown at the tips!!! (This photo is after I did some maintaining)

Sick crew cut. 💇‍♂️

May need more humidity if tips keep browning.

Might be your water if you’re using tap water. I try to use filtered water (just from my brita) and/or leave the water sitting out for a day to evaporate some of the chemicals off.
