Will it ever get a chance to go out in zone 2? Looks happy where it’s at.

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.

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 🤷🏼‍♂️😢🥶🇨🇦

Kudos for managing to keep palms in such a ridiculous climate! 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.

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.

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 ❤️❤️❤️
