Nice protection work!

Was that an unprotected Trachy I caught a glimpse of near house while you were panning the camera?

That lean-to has some nice specimens in it.
Bet it gets to 35C when the sun's shining. :D

thanks for posting video.

Protection looks god

Protection looks good , however be sure not to over protect these palms in zone 7 or they will end up dry or live and be not so cold hardy. The thermocube should moderate the amount of heat it gets if it works. I had some stop working mid-winter. Musa basjoo should do well there -
cheers
