We are expecting a low of high 20s on Friday in New Orleans. What is the best way to wrap and protect the palms from freeze damage?

thanks

Just saw this so may be too late. I’ve wrapped palms in blankets, towels even tshirts in the past. Depending on what palms you have you may need to add supplemental heat in the form of light strings or heating cables if temps fall below 30. A lot of info on winter protection on PT. Prepare in advance. I used to prowl thrift stores in summer for blankets, fleece and cotton flannel to wrap palms in winter.
