So let it be a cactus in winter and a palm in summer.
I let mine lose it's leaves over winter,
I think it helps it bloom in spring,my Pachypodium brevicaule is going to flower this spring.

Is it getting spider mites?
You know these can lose their leaves if the temps drop much below 40(f)?

I would keep this one,yours is right at the size where they really take off!

OK you're its saviour. 😕
Mine had low light this winter, but was in the warm house.

How do you know that yours will flower this year?
Wish there was a way to tell for sure.

Nope, no spider mites, just that horrible little white and beige bumps on it.
Scratched them off with my fingernail, then wiped leaves with a bit of rubbing alcohol.
What a job!
And it infected three of my baby palms as well as my beautiful two Brahea Armata, which I've just finished trying to clean.

I think you will be glad you saved it!
My Pachypodium brevicaule is going to flower,
it has a little flower stalk poking up out of the new leaves.
