Just took a quick detour on my way home to see how the Washingtonias fared the winter.. There were a few storms where the temps dropped below 20f..  

Here are a few pics.. these saw around 15f... they might green up.. but dont look to be totally defoliated.  Saw another trachy too so snapped a pic of that one..

No palm killing events this winter.  How are your jubuea cross palms leaf hardiness compared to you filifera 's? 

About a half zone higher than a zonal winter! 

Here's mine after that February 14/16f event.  Pic taken 2/19/23 (the small leaners are mostly drought damaged-roots).

The south is not perfect, but there will be that one area palms will love to grow and thrive in

Your palms look great and that sunset is perfect, thanks for sharing!

Did you guys see my Albuquerque area palm locations map? I posted it a week or so ago. I made a map of all the palm locations I know of in the Albuquerque area with Google Maps street view links to them. Let me know of any other palms around town to add to the map, there are definitely lots more around. Thanks and keep up the great work!
