One dead variegated foxy lady

Featured Replies

Discovered my foxy lady dying I always pull out any dead or dying plant always to inspect what might be the cause of the issue and to my discovery a grub was eating away unnoticed eating the palm heart I have never seen this before and let’s say very disappointing with the result to have such a rare palm die this way a soil insecticide may have helped but I don’t like to spray my palms it is what it is

A borer of some sort not the African black beetle there are way to many beetles in my area to tell we need an entomologist 

Looks similar to the bloke that killed my trunked cycad
