One gallon size (12" - 15" tall), planted 6 months ago, under very high oak canopy but right at the edge.

No damage at all (other than a couple very small spots) from fairly severe 4 night stretch (temps are approx. since this data was from closest weather stations to my yard) -- 38, 30-33 FROST, 32-35 FROST, 38. I am almost certain there was no frost on this palm but was still impressed that such a small specimen did so well with that 4 night "endurance test".
