Sabal Domingenisis faces west, growing inbetween two Sabal minors (North Carolina ecotype.) They grow in between two homes and garages, wind from north west creates a wind tunnel but it’s usually slightly sheltered in general. We had the snow and it stayed below freezing for many days at a time. The lowest we got during the cold snap was 17f in the day, 3f that night. Coldest, it was, recorded: 7f, 3f 5f 9f nighttime lows I’d guess the daytimes were in between 17-26f It seems to be rougher than other years but remember the snow cover insulated the roots for a few weeks. Here are 2 early fall pictures Now here’s two photos I took 15 minutes ago:
Thanks for reading !
