Hey all,
My biggest T. Fortunei has some of the leaves on the newer fronds that seem to be folding like you would roll a cigar or something. I just noticed it. Can anyone give me some advice please, water? Stop watering? anything?

Do you have a picture? When some Trachycarpus become too dry, they fold up like and accordion. But the leaves will also fold if there is a deficiency of Boron.
If you water too much or just had a large rain storm, all the Boron can leach through the soil and you'll have to wait for decomposing organic material to release it back into the soil.
