Texas Freeze Damage Question


westbay

Recommended Posts

Last winter after Hurricane Harvey  we had a bad freeze in Galveston. It damaged my Bismarkia and Queen palm. The Bismarkia is fine now but the Queen palm isn't. It put out two fronds  out about half way and then more new fronds are a foot long or less. The two larger fronds are turning brown at the tips and no getting any longer. I think everything is stuck.

Is the such a thing as "crown crowding" or something and what can I do?

It is residual from the cold weather.  A lot of Houston and Galveston queens have or will die from this winter.  Some just hand in there longer than others before they throw in the towel.
