Fortunei palm is very brown - please help save him!

[Blackbird1234]

Hi all,

I have a fortunei palm (I'm in France), bought in March 2019 and popped immediately in the garden in the pot it came in. During the summer it started getting brown tips on the leaves (there are really only 2 leaves) and couldn't figure out why. Before the winter, I brought it into the veranda/conservatory thinking it would be ideal but it's still got the brown leaves and they seem to be getting worse.

Does anyone have any tips? They're not just a bit light brown, they're very dark/almost black. Tia!

Picture ?

How much water are you giving it, how big is the pot and what's the soil like?

I don't have a picture but will see if I can add one once home.
We water it probably about once a week at the moment and I don't think we give it quite enough after having read an article yesterday, but was very conscious of not overwatering it during the summer. The pot isn't very big, it's the one it came in, same with the soil so I'm not sure.

I'm thinking of repotting it in a larger pot with some good quality soil and sand - will that help or will it stress it out?
