PalmsandLiszt Posted February 2 Report Share Posted February 2 I've never seen the words 'zone 2' on here before. 'The range of minimum average temperatures for zone 2 is between -50°F and -40°F or -45.6°C and -40°C.' Good grief! Never mind palms, I don't think I'd be hardy in zone 2. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately our summers regularly push 100F with scorching hot prairie winds that whip through my Adonidia fronds and give them a good burn 😢 then it’s back to -20F for 9 months 🤷🏼♂️😢🥶🇨🇦 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your A. merrillii look the picture of health. I never realised Canada got such temperature extremes; I just vaguely assumed it was a bit chilly most of the time.

ChicagoPalma Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 I have some palms in the ground here in zone 6a/5b area in Chicago, It’s the first winter my windmill is having and it’s doing pretty great with all the protection, especially during the negatives.

Then back in for a year 🤣 That would certainly help me not scorch 75% of the foliage due to lazy acclimation 😉😆👍🏻❤️ last overnight frost is always last week of May. After that they are out until second week of September give or take ❤️❤️❤️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
