The snow gum on the right side still has some green after a low of -6.5F (-21.4C). All other Eucs are totally fried.

I lost a branch off my Y. gloriosa 'Tennessee' from snow loads......

WOW, great collection of Yucca seedlings. :shock: They look super healthy and happy. I'm glad to see the Y. gloriosa 'white shed'. That is a very nice Yucca in my garden......it's over 7 feet (2.1m) tall now and super hardy. This Yucca was sent to me from Jim Kelly of New Jersey as an unusual lookin...

TimMAz6

WOW, great news Aaron......I'm glad they can take your cold/wind........those hybrids have so much color!

TimMAz6

nice Yuccas Andy. Y. filifera is one of the best looking Yuccas in my opinion.......we need to hybrid filifera with some other hardier Yuccas to get the filifera look which is hardier........that would be great. 8) that Y. queretaroensis is a great Yucca too......even less hardy than filifera in my ...

TimMAz6

nice snow photos! I can't wait for spring.

TimMAz6

Nice shots Jim.....your Tricho is a beauty!

TimMAz6

Hi Barb,

don't be sorry......it's fun learning what's hardy and what isn't. If I get a Euc to survive here with limited damage I'd be happy.

TimMAz6

those are some brutal temps.........the only survivors should be the minors and needles.....keep us updated.

TimMAz6

Hi Marceli........Eucs are more like zone 8a plants......perhaps zone 7b.........I treat them like an annual.....if they survive I'm really happy. 8) Hi Paul.......I'm sure all will die to the ground.......even the good looking one will probably get hammered back when temps start warming up. This we...

TimMAz6

nice find Aaron.........looks like some sort of Y. recurvifolia/gloriosa?

TimMAz6

still alive!

TimMAz6

another update......low of -6.5F (-21.4C) and my Euc's are dying left and right........one of the survivors is this one snow gum (the Euc on the right). The snow gum Euc on the left is toast. <img src=http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c309/timmaz6/2013%20Plants/5A6708A8-726F-43A1-BE12-C7F1B7F43DF9_z...

TimMAz6

your J tree looks mint!

TimMAz6

Hi Barb if you had a warmish spell the Yuccas could be growing......but generally they don't grow outside here in my winter.....in the unheated garage is a different story. Yuccas will grow in winter and can be one of the more difficult plants to get through winter with limited light.....the soil mu...

TimMAz6

too bad for your loss Aaron! -14F with a load of wind will do it!

TimMAz6

Hey Jim......that orange was a Poncirus trifoliata.....nice test for your area.....especially this year! 8) Hey Mike......if you find Tetrapanax seed let me know.....that would be cool to grow from seed. But I'd get an offshoot from the mother plant. If you can't find one let me know and in summer I...

TimMAz6

my guess on the Opuntia would be a form of phaeacantha. Plant it outside and if it survives 0F it's likely phaeacantha.

TimMAz6

I agree that might be a Trichocereus......the one you got up in Iowa! T. terscheckii

Here's a big one off the web

<img src=http://www.kakteen-kiel.de/images/Diete ... %20299.jpg>

TimMAz6

PS.....that unknown plant looks like Dasylirion wheeleri or so other form of Dasy.

TimMAz6

If your from NC I would plant the MP so it does not get any afternoon direct sun. I would select a spot which has the coldest soil too. MP's seem to have many issues south of Wash DC since it's too hot/humid. Try to minimize the heat/humidity issue by selecting your coldest location (kinda opposite ...

TimMAz6

great shots Jim......looks like your having a load of fun out their!!

Loquat still alive after -6.5F (-21.4C).

There's a guy in Attleboro, MA who has loads of palms for sale...........not that close to you but perhaps the closest! PM me if you want more info.

TimMAz6

I buried one of my needle palms under snow......hope it works!

TimMAz6

great collection of Yuccas! I love seeing all those seedlings.

TimMAz6

nice video........this person sure has a great collection!!

TimMAz6

we hit a new low this season too........low last night of -6.5F (-21.4C). <img src=http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c309/timmaz6/2013%20Plants/0E1A8D83-F1D9-4330-B36E-DFA2F20C1072_zpsgrvzlzhk.jpg> <img src=http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c309/timmaz6/2013%20Plants/330F58BD-5D95-42B0-B2AF-2D9F2BFE...

TimMAz6

Your Washy looks great........your making me feel bad that I didn't use any supplemental heat on my palms!

TimMAz6

yes....there's a clear different between the two!

TimMAz6

she looks great Barb!

TimMAz6

Stay warm Jim......best wishes to your Sequoiadendron.

TimMAz6

Hi Andy

perhaps some of those broad leaf evergreens aren't use to direct sun in your climate since your so cloudy all the time??

TimMAz6

0F in pots? That Butia must be dead........That Trachy should be dead too......hopefully it was is some sort of microclimate or buried in snow when the cold hit. Let us know how they faired.

TimMAz6

Hi Jim

please keep that cold in your area!!

TimMAz6

Hi Barb

yes....that bloom will get a long flower stalk......I'll update in a couple more weeks.

Hi Jim

lets see a photo of that Aloe!

TimMAz6

Hi Barb

that's not me......that photo was taken from the web showing how large the R. sinogrande leaves get.
