Very nice. How did S. bermudana handle the lower teens Savannah saw at one time some years back (forgot which year)? What's its growth rate for you?

Thanks for the updated and close-up pictures. That "Lisa" and S bermudana are world class!

None of those palms have any protection and never have. I don't know how cold it has been there since 2002 (maybe 13F), but there has ever been much damage except on the Acrocomia and Phoenix.

Looks awesome, thanks for sharing! Yes those 'Lisa's' look great!

How old would those Louisiana's be?

Everything was planted in July of 2002. I think the Louisianas were in 3gal. containers from Woodlanders Nursery originally.
