dead palm


Question
hi nick
greetings from ireland
we had a really bad winter here
around mid dec the temp dropped to minus 12 most nights
and hovvered at freezing most of the day this continued for about six weeks
we had never in living memory seen anything like
the roads all bust up
we are still recovering road wise
any way nick all our palms seem to have died
i was going to cut them down
but some say leave them alone they will come back
i am doubtfull nick as all the long leaves have fallen off
and they dont look well
thanks nick
come over to ireland sometime  we ll have a guinness
cheers john

Answer
Hi John, and top of the morning to ya! (do love my beer! lol), give them time, but it is getting close to the limit for waiting, if there is no sign of new growth at all, and they seem to be declining more, then the chances are pretty good they are beyond help. Nick
