Oh, that is sad.
And preventable, right? With electric heat tape and lights, with wrap?

Igor, they should possibly think about cutting the trunks (like Jim did) to see if any growth emerges.

Here is an update of the palm survived minus 23,4C last winter in Bulgaria. Thanks to Bobson from Plovdiv for sharing the pics.

Wow!

How very pretty!
Sincerely hope that multitude of flower spathes isn't its last hurrah 😕

Wow, that's fantastic! I think if the palm was fighting death, it would have aborted the flower spathes. I'm looking forward to seeing some more updated pics!

Just thinking back to our apple orcharding days.
Any tree that was ready to croak put out an amazing amount of blossoms, easily double that of other trees.
I've never seen a prettier pic of palm blossoms than Igor's.
