Out of all the ways to save and protect your Windmill Palm during the winter your way looks the most practical and simple to do. I really appreciate this video. Other's who post similar video's I've found have technical backgrounds that most of us do not have. Thanks Again !

I bought my Trachy over 20 years ago in January covered in snow with the pot frozen solid. The palm showed no signs of damage so I bought it and it’s now about 16 feet high. Tough as old boots!

I've used electric pipe heating cable for quite some time now and it has it's own thermostat which turns on when temperature nears 32 F. Just make sure the cable doesn't cross itself or the heat can melt the plastic where it crosses and short out.

Some users use both lights and the heating cable. the cable is used on the ground to keep the roots warm while the lights are used on the actual tree. i would just buy longer lights and leave some lying on the ground to keep the roots warm.

My pool is being built as we speak and I would love to shock my neighbors by somehow grow Palms around the pool. I only want a few as a tropical accent and this looks to be a great idea for keeping them alive.

Great job Jason! Very similar to what I do in your method. I tie my fronds up individually with velcro so I get a tighter fit. My styrofoam box is 12'' by 12'' x 15ft high and duct-taped together. Your triangle box method is interesting and would be wind-resistant. Great video and I subscribed Cheers.

I'm in zone 9b, but I grow lots of zone 10a and 10b palms and plants. I can attest that your protection method for small palms is great, especially for a protracted period of time (all winter long). In my case, I only have to protect certain palms once, maybe twice a winter. I also must use many protection methods due to the various sizes of my palms and plants. Some palms (now so tall, with large crown spread), I can only protect the trunk, up and just past the meristem. The crown of fronds may get severely frost burned and killed, but the trunk and meristem are not hurt, and new fronds start growing back in the late winter and early spring. Most palms look respectable after one growing season, but a full crown of fronds may take two growing season. Fortunately, I've been enjoying mild winters for the past 6-7 winters and haven't had to protect.

My friend in north Florida used the Christmas tree lights for years and works great. She got lazy and did not replace the year of a freeze and a couple of the palms died, the trees were about 10 years old 😢

Hey Jason, Burlap is also good to use because it drys out quickly. I am also in PA so we have about the same climate. Im in z7a . I cooked a palm using c7 or c9 lights before...dont wanna do that again. Your palms look great. The key is keeping them dry

You don’t need to give it an access spot for sunlight? I know any hole in insulation means less heat retained.. but they survive a 3-4 month period totally darked out? (Minus the puny amount of Christmas tree light)

How long can you keep it covered like that? Do you cover it anytime it gets below 32F or can you leave it uncovered below that? I live in zone 6A in Ohio and will be attempting to grow one next year. Thanks for the video!

I know this was a year ago but I have a few questions.. where did you get your windmill palms at? How big was it when you first got it? Could putting Christmas lights be unsafe because they could catch the tree on fire? I know it turns off at 40-45 but I would be afraid of it burning up.. btw thank you for this helpful video! Your Palms look amazing:)

My local Home Depot has windmill palms now (March 31, 2022) they are $30.00 and are about 6 to 8 inches tall. The lights should not catch the tree on fire.
