DC PalmCentral is back online. For those of you longing for the warm months, I've attached one of the last photos I took of my backyard before the first hard freeze last Fall. Note the bail of straw to the right of the photo was going to be used to protect the grove of bananas that had reached about 10 feet tall last year. The Washingtonia Robusta (large palm on the right by the frence) had a plastic, heated pavillion built around it and survived without a hitch.
I removed all of my palm pavilions from the winter and the front and back yard are edging towards full growth. No damage to any of my palms this winter, although it appears that the low in my backyard only reached 14 degrees F, which wouldn't cause damage on most of my outdoor collection. I will post some photos of the back yard taken this winter soon, and then an update showing the Spring growth.
