    True but to be honest we have had the same temperatures a few weeks ago and it doesn’t start to even show any damage and tue queens in the area have been through these temperatures for a few years they don’t look in perfect condition obviously but not in a bad one either

    They have eaten all pulp around the seed and left the naked seeds still attached on the rachilae! What kind of rat is able to act this way and risk its life with so many cats around? I have seen in the past rats stealing figs and almonds, but they were carrying their food hastily to their nest.

    It's the most hardy Butia. I'm not sure if it would survive in your area as WA is a lot cooler than Oregon, especially in summer and they need some heat. I had mine for 8 years and only wrapped the spear during freezing rain. It survived a lot of cold and the Great Ice Storm of 2021. This was in 2022, it got bigger each year and I had lots of volunteers.

    Exciting development! I’ve never Tod these either. Keep us informed!

    It's too early to look for damage but yes, if frost did not form on the plant that's a good reason to be optimistic. I think it will be fine.

    Update. Everything looks fine I can’t notice any damage to the palm and I checked another house that is even more elevated than me and his potted queens looked just as fine so I think due to the fact that it was -3 but dry and windy the frost couldn’t build up or even sit properly on the palm so that’s my theory as to why they do just fine

    It’s planted in a hot spot so doing quite well while I wait for the shade to grow around it! A rare Zamia that’s for sure.

    happypalms replied to happypalms's topic in DISCUSSING PALM TREES WORLDWIDE

    I thought you dropped in while I was at work, catch up with you next time you’re in the neighbourhood! The wife said Harry dropped in and he will catch up later! I put your palms in the back part of the greenhouse you can pick them up anytime! Richard 🤣
