29 degrees-no damage visible (yet) no frost

33 degrees- Nothing as well. no frost

Keeping in mind that damage can show up well into the future, I was surprised to see no damage at all to an exposed champagne palm. It has about 5-5.5' of trunk and carries 5-6 fronds. It is (or was) flowering.

Wow. Sorry dude. That is a sad looking pile of mush. Mine was in-ground, maybe the warmth of the ground kept it going. I don't really know. It is also right next to the sidewalk. Maybe some warmth there.

Red form, 28F with no frost. Moderate damage. This is a tough plant for me anyway, but has refused (so far) to die. We'll see.

28 Degrees/No frost

I think three days below freezing and the fact it is out in the elements caused the damage.

Len, Your plant looks to be a greenhouse or shade grown palm. Was it ?

Update on my Red form. Appears to be my first confirmed fatality. Growth bud is mushy. This was a decidedly difficult plant for me to maintain, contrary to what I'd heard. @28F zapped it good..
