Freeze protection for Roebelenii Palm


Question
What is the best way to protect this palm from freezing temps.  I has some damage already from two nights of cold temps.

Answer
Hi Mary, depending on its size, the only thing to do is wrap the trunk adjacent to the soil and place a couple of flood lights facing up the trunk, or even attached to the trunk facing up into the crown; the key is to lower the ambient temperature at the crown while insulating the root system.
