The jury is still out on whether or not these P elegans survive

Did these ever recover?

I have a 10-12 ft foxtail palm that was completely defoliated this January. It has pushed out some brown fronds and has some green coming out now, but it’s August now. Is it normal to take this long to recover or is it likely not gonna make it?

Did your Foxtail make it?

Dypsis pembana

Correction on this particular palm: This is likely an Allagoptera - possibly an arenaria that looks a bit different than the one in my south border garden bed.

Jacksonville Beach, FL.  Ultimate low was 26.2. 8 hours below freezing averaging around 28 for most of that time. Had a light frost in the morning. This was preceded by a frost on 1/24 which also caused minor burning. These photos were taken today.

Uncovered and no damage: bismarckia nobilis, sabal palmetto, chamaerops humilis, & phoenix roebelenii.

Covered with frost blankets, no supplemental heat source: 

adonidia merrillii - Over 75% burn.

ptychosperma elegans - Over 75% burn

wodyetia bifurcata - less than 30% burn

All of my tropical plants went unprotected and got fried including hibiscus, hawaiian ti, ixora, and crotons. This has happened pervious years and I suspect will bounce back as before.
