Well 8-9F is -13 to -12C..... We might see those temps about every 30 years or so.. if that. I think its a lil stretchin' of the truth for the palms ability to survive that. I can see survival w/protection but not without. Medjools are suppose to be good to 18-19F.. Sylvesteris to 22F.. ? CIDP's 20F but they all get leaf burn in the low 20's...
Pindo's Rock :^) 15F w/ windchill of 0F
