CIDP is planted outside in a winter enclosure. This was the first time I chickened out and put a heater in there. I think nothing colder than about -5°C (24½°F) was the coldest in there. I new it would've been close to the limit and didn't want to chance it. It would have been a shame to jeopardize this palm for the one night it would have taken to damage or kill it.
Cheers, Barrie.

Barrie,
Certainly paid off for you to be ready with heat.

Better than the unprotected CIDP's in the UK after their snowstorm/cold.

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.
