Windmill Palm dead

[carolstropicals]

I am pretty sure my Windmill palm is dead. Actually I did it after a bad freeze. Didn't know I was supposed to leave the dead looking leaves on the palm.

So this 8 to 10 foot palm trunk is still in the ground.

What I want to know is if I can plant bromeliads on this trunk or will it eventually fall over.

Anyone know the answer to this strange question. I've tried to search, but found nothing.

Just how long can I expect this palm to stay upright ?

Thanks, Carol

It may last a year or two but that depends on

moisture and heat.

Thanks, I know this was an unusual question.  Most would dig the dead palm & throw away.  Thanks

There is still a Waggie trunk at my old place even after 3 years

but I think it would fall over if someone touched it...

Mine died this summer too.  No idea why.
