Jim great pics. Let us know how they do through the winter. I am really interested to see how that B. eriospatha does.

Me too John
We had our coldest night of the season last night(25F)and I really have not done anything about covering it-Butia
My Washys little hut hit 24.8F last night but is fine with the quick recovery in temps today 😀
My last Castor bean looks toasty and the BOP has a few crispy leaves.
