I have to agree, Kru, Dwarf Cuban/Jamaican Red, Grand Nain and Orinoco seem to be the first to yellow as the temps drop here. The Ae Ae is marginally affected so far with lows in the mid-50's.
I, too. was surprised to see the Orinocos in this category, but my experience with it here is the same, not cold-tolerant.
