This is a nice CIDP I spotted on Lawyer. I'm not sure of the age - much appreciated if anyone can guess.

That they can if it doesn’t happen often.  In west Texas and southern New Mexico there are some individuals that survived lows of -5F with a high of only +5F the following day.  Of course that’s in a dry climate, but they seem to withstand down to mid teens in a humid climate if it doesn’t happen every winter.  The fronds start taking damage at 18F once established.

Oh smack dab between Austin Dallas and Houston. Never thought there could be a CIPD that can live there.
