I chose to not post on my “So Far so Good” thread anymore because it was getting too long. Anyways I can finally start taking the covers off the plants since the temperatures are getting a little milder.

 

Needle Palm is undamaged as usual.IMG_7908.thumb.jpeg.98fc7c6eef4767e45be78320cf2bd070.jpeg

Cycad is brown, but alive! There’s still some green on the base of the fronds.

Sabal Louisiana lost two leaves, and seems moderately cold damaged.

Cant really assess any damage until I can permanently take the burlap off, but so far I’ve seen only tip damage, and the spears look healthy!

I temporarily uncovered the Butia since it got a little warmer out today. IMG_7919.thumb.jpeg.b9d6277b79b7e86b28f44bc30a37235a.jpegIMG_7918.thumb.jpeg.8e86b775ca564127091338af80b12370.jpeg

Most of the outer fronds have damage, and some of them have tip burn. The inner fronds look perfect so far as well as the spears, with no damage or discoloration showing.

Man, I’m hoping for an early spring, but I feel like this year wont get as warm as it did like last February/March.
