So, I think some of my trees are recovering. But I noticed as the spears are pushing there is some yellow. Any suggestions?

Where are you located and what lows did they see?  You likely just will have one ugly frond the rest will be ok.

Cold damaged fronds that were inside the palm that became moldy. Newly formed fronds after the freeze won’t be the same.

Make a horizontal line with a permanent marker across the spear and some old fronds. As long as the spear is moving up, your palm is ok.

It will do fine, but unless you are wanting seeds from this palm i would cut off the flowers so the palm will focus more on putting out new fronds rather than producing seed. Water it well.

Thanks, everyone. Looks like one of them is dead. It was growing and the main spear is all dried up now. This has happened to two others as well. 

Hoping the remaining three survive!

this happens a lot when the meristem pushes out damaged and necrotic fronds. Doesn’t mean they are dead.... At least what you posted were not dead. The others, not sure didn’t see those. 


I am more concerned myself with palms that are not doing anything, not pushing out dried up fronds etc...
