I've had this palm for a few years and it's been fine. I water it once a month, don't move it around too much and make sure the soil doesn't get waterlogged.

A month or so ago I noticed it starting to droop, and the soil was still very wet despite not having recently watered it. As a precaution I removed it from the damp soil and repotted it with fresh houseplant compost mix. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have improved the plant's health ๐Ÿ˜ข

Is there anything else I can try?

Owner told me "there's no such thing as a house plant", only plants we keep indoors.

This feels so nakedly obvious now I've thought about it ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿป
