Hello all,

While browsing the web I happened across an interesting website:

http://home.windstream.net/hbrahea333/

The page features many cold hardy palms being grown in North GA. The winter page states the palms were covered when the palms were younger but once larger receive no winter protection.

Does anyone know who has grown these palms or have any more information on the palms and how they are nowadays?

 

Thanks!

Wow. I've actually thought about transferring up to Dawsonville. One of the things I was concerned about was the ability to grow palms. I know, that's sad. Good to know, though.

Are you also growing cold hardy palms, I live near Dawsonville and remember his webpage and yes it's true.  If you protect the palms for around the 1st 3 years, you don't need to protect them anymore, they get tougher each year.  I'll try to drive by and take pictures of his yard again.  He has Wash. Filifera, Brahea Arm.  Sabal Palmetto, Windmill, etc.
