Burnt windmills
Posted: Sat Mar 05, 2016 6:04 pm
Going into winter all of my windmills and two needles found theirselves in a new location. So for extra precaution I used Christmas lights this yr. Plus, during our ice storms I wrapped the fronds with a blanket then frost cloth. Results were about 80/20. I have 1 palm with spear pull, 1 palm that I consider defoliated. 3 windmills look ok, with some slight burning. Needles came through fine due to their size.

There is also a small sabal birmingham going through its first winter in front of the large needle.

Not a great pic, but this windmill has only minor burning with no protection.

Some seedling sabal minors starting to put out more fronds.
My oldest birmingham on the left is growing in reverse.

What started out as 2, 3 gallon blue pots turned into 4 sabal minors.
