That is great! They produce fruit in North Texas (zone

but I never imagined that north of there.

Yeah every year we see fruit but it never gets ripe before the winter I usually have to bring the seeds inside and soak them in warm water for them to become ripe and then germinate

Mike, please make a updated detailed video of when you box up your palms for the winter. Thickness of styrofaom, how it's held together, anchoring to the ground and heat supplied.
