Did water 'em, last week.
Crap.
The Brahea armata won't make it, just a flimsy plastic tent over it that blew over/open one night during cold winds.
The little Chamaerops humilis, unknown trunking yucca and unknown agave/yucca/furcaea? have no heat either.
😡 😡 Damn volcano dust.

I'm too old to sport, Andy. 😆
By the way, here's the other (twin) to the Brahea Armata that got the tough love last year.
Also pushing a nice new frond...on the sundeck today.

Maybe they take 3 years to die after what I did. 😕
Or maybe the warnings are a bunch of hooey.
