Sad to think some of these were 20/30 years old. 😡

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

phoenix dactylifera
Yes, it's showing new growth. 😀
I think when I was down there, only one plam looked dead that I seen. It was a CIDP, a big one in Willcox AZ.

Sierra Vista AZ -2f
A winter burnt Dasylirion wheelerii? Strange to see one with winter burn in that country? May be strees from something else?

Aaargh!
But, as consolation, did you spot the 2 or 3 fabulous yuccas (and spent blooms) in front of the blue jeep? 😯
You and I put on a lot of street-miles in winter, don't we Aaron? 😆 😆 😆
I was recently in Nice, France...wow the palms there!!!!

Nope, I had to go back and look. Small yucca elatas. 😀

Butia capitata, looks like it's taking longer to recover.
I have seen these in cold weather and they seem to take the cold better than phoenix sp, but after -2f might be a bit slower to grow back. 🙂
