We had an honest to goodness blizzard last night! Maybe 20 or so inches of snow and some towns nearby got close to 30". There were 50 mile an hour gusts and sustained high winds all night long ( it's been blowing for days now). The Ensete tent is ripped and bent over so I assume that's dead.... what can you do? 'Tis the season.

I would say that sabals are worth the try, some other Trachy types... any advice? Nannorrhops maybe, jubaea of course... butia maybe...
Beside two T. fortunei, I have a small Nannorrhops outside (the green form), without any kind of protection. I`m wondering if it will survive. A gardener told me that coldness wouldn`t be a problem for it as long as you keep it dry. I don`t think it is dry enough as it is snowing/melting/snowing all the time ...so we`ll see.

As far as I remember, Butia eriospatha is said to be a better candidate for a wet and cold climate than B. capitata. Maybe it`s worth a try.

I'm freezing in Munich, Germany at the moment.
My nanners in Greece stayed warm so far and no big cold is expected so far, but little freezes during nights are possible at the end of this week/beginning of next year.

I hope you had all a Wonderful Christmas!

Hiya Re: Weather forecast
Serves you right Bob...bragging about how you had no snow. Finally got what you deserved,
eh?


We've had snow for weeks and I'm sick of it. It was super cold today when I was out and tonight we're sitting at -10°C...14°F with windchill. Glad I'm in for the night.

Today we had 2° of minimum temp so my 'nanas didn't get a "below zero" experience as expected by forecast.... I hope that the african high I saw yesterday at the edge of my country will spare us the worst I see coming from North....

We've also been having cold temps, especially at night in the low 20's F, and windy, with gusts yesterday of 44 mph. My palms look OK, but we all know that cold damage won't show frequently until the spring. Fingers are crossed for all of us!

Yeah, it's a bad winter for Rome. Even Genoa has better night temps than you. Strange.

Is there someone still alive in Genoa ? I though everyone was drowned from rain and snow all over northern Italy.....
Italians says that Liguria is Italy's W.C. (that's a joke of course) beacuse of the total amount of rain per year that is much higher that the rest of italian regions....

Liguria is beautiful. Although I do mind the winds in Italy. The only wind-safe city was Turin.

Yes, it's beautiful..... I served in the Navy in Liguria and there are delightful places like "5 terre" and the likes but it's really rainy down there...

Yesterday on the TV NEWS there was hthe count of how many ligurian town and small cities were cut off by mud avalanches cauded by rain and it was really inpressive....
