The golden cane palm foliage and stem turning yellow

In general, this palm has a slightly yellow color on the stem and leaves compared to other palms. but, if you think your palm becomes too yellowish, it can be caused by the sun or watering amount. if you let your palm to sit somewhere has too strong light, it can make the foliage bit yellowish and eventually can make it burn or when you give them too little water, the tip of the foliage starts to turn yellow.

Foliage turning brown

this also can happen for 2 reasons. one is because of the dry air, less water and the other is frost damage. if your plant grows indoors, it may not because of the frost damage, so try to mist on the foliage to increase the humidity or place mulch on top of the soil would help too.

(In my case, I'm not really using a humidifier, but whenever I give water, I'm giving lots of water so all soil can be wet enough, and covered grabble on top to let the soil slowly dry out.)

However, there is a case that seems like without any reason, lower leaves turning to brown, but this is nature happening. Originally old foliage turn to brown and die.. so in that case, just simply cut off to make the plant keep look nice.
