Thanks for the pics, they look pretty good considerin'!
Tell me about your temps, like extreme lows ( how many) and duration.
We took it on the chin here with gettin close to "0f" several times and 3-4 times were we stayed below freezing for 3-4 consecutive days.
Looks like our lowest this year was 5 degrees F...only one night...However, we had many days where the highs were only in the upper 20s, and about a week where there was 3 inches of snow on the ground. When the polar vortex came through, it dropped into the teens and stayed there for 3 days...fun! Haha. These palms are up against a church, they're the only ones I know of remaining in Wichita. I'd love to see some trachies along the Arkansas River and sprinkled around downtown, though...I really think they'd do fine here. Unfortunately, I don't see it happening, though I'd love to raise awareness...(is "awareness" the same thing as taking a few thousand trachy seeds and throwing them in random yards late at night? Hmmm...) >:D
Witchita looks somewhat tropical from those pics.

I guess I can dream huh? 😉 I often have actual dreams that I'm driving around Wichita and come across a palm I've never seen before...
