I planted this in March. By end of June it looked great.

End of June

I returned from a short trip after July 4th and all of the fronds looked fried except for the frond emerging from the spear.

Now

I have been deep watering. I’m genuinely at a loss. It’s getting water. How could it take such a drastic turn in less than a month.

I have never grown this particular palm so I can’t really help. It sure looks as though it is struggling. I am sorry you are having a problem , I hope it pulls through. It has been quite warm for the last week. Harry

    What is "deep watering"?

    Here in Atlanta we had weeks of scorching heat but the weather's flipped. It's raining ever day.

    By deep watering, I hope you are giving it about 10 gallons of water, at least 2 or 3 times a week for a new planting. A half hour time on a 1 gpm drip line isn't going to cut it. Appears it needs more water than it was receiving now that temps have risen.
