Re: Winrter protection of Windmill Palms in zone 6/7
how big are your windmill and needle palms? I have 5 windmill palms, the 2 I protected look great, the 3 I did not, the leaves got freeze dryed by the zero degree weather we had in early January. It seemed like below about 10 degrees is when they got leave damage. Even though they suffered leave damage they are all still alive and growing again, they just look like crap right now, a truck with just one leaf growing out of the top. next year I am going to use heat cables on all of my palms, they really work.
