Due to the relatively mild weather we've been having, I've been able to let my palms go an extra month without protecting them! Since they're small t. fortunei, I usually protect them when it gets down to -10 C (14 F) or lower. We've had a couple nights of -9 C in November, but the t. fortunei are doing great. The only reason I'm protecting them now is because I'm going to Toronto for a week, although the long-term weather looks mild too.

I didn't take any recent pics of the palms, but they're a few inches larger than this now:

I just did the same thing as usual to protect: mulch on the bottom, dry leaves on top, and covered by recycling bags:

My O. humifusa also flowered for the first time earlier this year:

I cut open the three fruits, and got about 150 seeds between them!:
