I started these over summer, and I think it's time to think of bringing these inside soon. I'm going to plant them in the ground once they're bigger, but I'm pretty certain they'd rot at this size.

Nice. Hyphaene are extremely root sensitive, and sometimes will even “sulk” for a while after taking damage before dying. I’ve been told to get them in the ground as promptly as you can. The larger their root system gets the higher the risk for damage.

I'll probably plant them together so that I don't have to separate them. And that's good to know, I'll try to just cut out the bottom and put them in the ground next spring.

Oh bummer! Are you going to try again? I keep all of my potted plants over cement - even still, I had a syagrus amara send roots out of a 15gal container and start circling below the pot against the cement.

Yes. VERY sensitive root systems! I had a coriacea,seed planted directly in the ground. Thing kept dividing at ground level to 8 heads,and I knew it would eventually be too big for the area. Dug it carefully,trimmed off half the fronds,threw it into a 25 gallon pot,but it started drying up anyway...🤷‍♂️
