Palm Injections & Trunk Treatments in Sarasota
Some of the most serious palm diseases in our area cannot be trimmed away. Art’s Tree Service provides targeted palm trunk injections in Sarasota to treat and help prevent fatal diseases like Lethal Bronzing and Texas Phoenix Palm Decline before they take a palm down.
These diseases spread through our region and move fast. Once symptoms show, the window to act is short, so early treatment and prevention matter.

Lethal Bronzing and Texas Phoenix Palm Decline
Both are phytoplasma diseases that attack palms from the inside, causing premature fruit drop, browning fronds, and eventual death. They are common in Florida and there is no cure once a palm is heavily infected, which is why prevention is the real strategy.
How Trunk Injections Work
We inject an antibiotic treatment directly into the palm trunk, which protects healthy palms and can slow the disease in palms caught early. Treatments are repeated on a schedule to keep valuable palms protected.
Which Palms Are Worth Treating
High-value and signature palms, like Canary Island date palms and sabal palms, are often worth a prevention program, especially if Lethal Bronzing has been found nearby. We assess your palms and tell you honestly which ones are good candidates and which are too far gone.

Can Lethal Bronzing be treated?
There is no cure once a palm is heavily infected. Preventive antibiotic trunk injections can protect healthy palms and may slow the disease if it is caught very early, so prevention is the priority.
How do I know if my palm has Lethal Bronzing?
Early signs include premature fruit drop and dying older fronds, followed by the spear leaf collapsing. A diagnosis is best confirmed by a professional, since the symptoms overlap with other issues.
How often do palms need injections?
Preventive injections are typically repeated on a schedule, often every few months to once a year depending on the product and disease pressure in your area. We set up a plan for your specific palms.
