Livistonia Chinensis Survivors in Zone 8b Texas?

[Collectorpalms]

What percentage survived 5F or thereabouts? 
I have one tall one left. Survived 4F unprotected and took full force of weather. 3 others survived too. Did better than Washingtonia percentage wise for me. 
It got beat up this winter from 22F wind and ice this year, but it did have a nice crown by last year. I expect it to look good by late summer. Not sure if the trunk will end up with damage. But I like the curve it developed at base.

This gives me hope for the one I planted in my yard here in Raleigh. I'm going to protect it for as long as I can. Even then, I suspect it might be a die back perennial for me.

This is an Austin survivor I know of

Was great to have that many survive at that size I'd say.

Location helped this one. SE recessed wall, out of wind mostly, every bit helps. 2019 pre-freeze according to google.

This boggles my mind because I have one here in AZ that got completely hammered (foliage) at 26F this year and has not rebounded even slightly.  All leaves toast - only the spear left and it has barely opened.  We've been above 90F for a month or so now.

Definitely a nice microclimate .

I had a pic of it from last summer but can’t find it. Actually put out a decent amount of fronds last year, and recovered as quick as the Filiferas. This isn’t the only one I know of a few more around town I have mental pictures of but can’t remember where exactly.
