They can take it -but they do burn when temps rise above 95F

The palms in the south-ex-Dallas etc get burned up but recover beautifully
in the fall and spring but if typical Dallas heat returns in summer-they go into
survival mode....

Thanks for all the help so far everyone!

From Wikipedia:

Windsor has a humid continental climate (Köppen climate classification Dfa) with four distinct seasons. The mean annual temperature is 9.4 °C (49 °F), among the warmest in Canada primarily due to its hot summers. Some locations in coastal and lower mainland British Columbia have a slightly higher mean annual temperature due to milder winter conditions. The coldest month is January and the warmest month is July. The coldest temperature ever recorded in Windsor was −29.1 °C (−20.4 °F) and the warmest was 40.2 °C (104.4 °F).[10]

Summers are hot and humid, with a July average of 22.7 °C (73 °F)although the humidex reaches 30.0 °C (86.0 °F) or above 67 times in an average summer, and thunderstorms are common every 5 days or so.[11] Winters are generally cold with a January average of −4.5 °C (23.9 °F) with occasional mild periods. Windsor is not located in the lake effect snowbelts, and snow cover is intermittent throughout the winter lasting 52 days of snow on the ground. Nevertheless, there are typically two to five major snowfall events each winter. Windsor has the highest number of days per year with lightning, haze, and daily maximum temperatures over 30 °C (86 °F) of cities in Canada. Windsor is also home to Canada's warmest fall, with highest average temperatures for the months of September, October and November.[12] Precipitation is generally well-distributed throughout the year. There are on average 2,265 sunshine hours per year in Windsor.[13]

Great info on Windsor, duke

I especially like the part of it being "Canada's warmest fall weather".
When we on the west side are already shivering and stacking firewood.

Having read that, IMO your decision would protect the Trachy from the wind (100 km/hr), versus protecting from south side heatwaves.

In 100 km/hr winds between those townhouses (like in a wind tunnel), there'd be few leaves to look at out your window...they'd be in the parking lot. 😉

Mine thrive here in the high humidity and 90 to 100 F days and 70's to 80's nights in south jersey. Never had a problem. I water them regularly though int he three hottest months of summer.Good Luck

Welcome aboard PN, Xerarch,

15+ years of palm passion. 😀
Hope you have some to show us...we go ga ga over photos.

Otherwise we'll enjoy all the palms you're about to acquire.
Look forward to reading about your favorites.

Unfortunately I only recently moved to my new (cold) location from AZ. I left all my palms behind but one 😥 I left behind Bismarckias, Syagrus, Butia, Phoenix, Dioon, Zamia, many fruit trees and a host of other trees and shrubs. The only palm I salvaged was a potted Rhapidophyllum hystrix which I originally acquired in SLC, UT years ago. This one will stay with me until I eventually make it to my permanent abode where I can plant it without fear of having to abandon it. Believe me, I wish I had the means to settle down in a permanent place when I was first interested in palms so I could get the maximum years of growth and enjoyment. Luckily I'm still young enough to get some good palm growing years after my wife and I move back to a warmer climate!

That's a long move!
Heck, I would've kept the Bizzie...just kidding 😆

That's an impressive list of gorgeous palms.
And this way, you can slowly acquire one or two a year, keep them in pots.
Drag them in and out and enjoy every minute of all that hard work that people in southern climes laugh at us for.
