Great informative video Brad. Palms in pots are no doubt way less cold tolerant and many people don't seem to realize that. I mulch our palm nursery with leaves every year, only the pots. Cheers
I am in Zone 6A in Mississauga ontario, we decided against windmill palms for now, too slow growing. In the spring we will be planting, Pindo Palm and Washingtonia Robusta and Musa bajoo Bananas.
what’s the lowest temp those larger trachys in the ground could take? about the same as the bigger plant in the pot or a little more hardy? I live in zone 7b and i’m totally willing to cover them in the winter but i’m just curious.
Idk where he gets his numbers from because they are wrong, not trying to bash him but in lots of other videos are wrong numbers too. They are cold hardy to about 7b maybe 7a pushing it. The temperature he said in the video is around 15 Fahrenheit which is 8b. Very inaccurate they are much cold hardier to around 5 to maybe even 0 Fahrenheit.
They are hardy to about minus 12 celcius but some will say hardy to minus 15 Celsius. though it's recommended they not stay at those temperature too long.
We live in Arkansas on the border of zone 7a and 8b. We planted a 12 ft Windmill Palm this Summer. Wondering how we should protect it in the winter when it gets cold. We are supposed to get some below freezing temps (28-32) at night for a few nights. We do have some mulch around it and did get some burlap and wrapped around the bottom this afternoon. I read we only should keep that on for no longer then like 5 days....is that correct? We are originally from Iowa and this only our second winter down here. Thanks for your help.
Christmas lights, and not the LED type. the regular ones that give off heat. Then place burlap over it and some type of enclosure such an insulation wrap or you can build an enclosure with insulation inside.
Palms? Outside? In Canada? I live in New York City so I've never seen a palm my entire life (in person of course) I think I'm going to order a bonsai palm from online so I can finally see one in person
My palm in southwest bc now is so established I pull a giant transparent thick mil bag over 3 coated 8 ft rebars wired at top like a teepee. I just for the 1st time burlap the bottom 2-3 feet of trunk -if it snows I shake the snow off the teepee bag like I’ve done before the past years
I live on Vancouver Island and Windmill palms do well in pots outside in the winter under a covered porch or overhang. Mine are doing fine as still pups also my valley had few freezing nights but never had proper winters the past few years. Mine have a protected layer of mulch leaves. Also our zone provide Japanese bananas year round outdoors, dwarf cavendish do very well in spring and summer till early October. Nanaimo is the only city I know that can’t support temps for bananas. Windmill palms are super popular outdoor yard plants in Victoria. Sydney has a orange tree grove outdoors. Orange trees grow in southern Vancouver Island.
I would try one, but the arborescent palms are far less cold tolerant that the dwarf type palms such as Sabal minor or Rhapidophyllum hystrix. You actually have native Sabal minor palms in McCurtain county , Oklahoma and they are bullet proof for you
+Ann Turner it is about 15 years old, they grow pretty slow. Don’t let young ones get to cold in the winter. Very small ones could gain some size indoors under lights
@@BananaJSSI He must be in SW Canada (Vancouver), now I can hear the "oats". Zone 8B is hard to get even in NC or even the inland SC (Carolinas), but I know Canadian Z8B can be 15F and above and that's amazing, but will the Z8B last for 10-20 years in a row there, that's a question.

Do you have cacti?
Excellent video and good tips how to protect young palm trees , and esp keeping small ones indoor as long as soil is with moisture,appreciated
Awesome my Canadian friend!😃👍🌴

Great video! Mine are still small so they'll be inside for this winter, but hopefully putting them outside in the spring :D

Haha, yeah man. South West coast of Canada is pretty warm
Miguel look into the needle palm it’s very cold hardy. Also the windmill palm with protection is another cold hardy palm tree 🌴
@@BradsGreenhouse hi I’m in z7 just outdoors Vancouver- I never did thermostat mine is inground every year ok gonna look at burlap for trunk

Can one of these grow in 7a? I live in Oklahoma and planted one. We don’t live far away from 7b...

Nice 🌴 👍🏼
How old is the large palm tree you said about 12-15 foot ? Have you any tips on these Tracacarpus fortunie for growning,mine are still very small

Brad I’ve been watching seance 2012 where is the large Japanese maple gone by the pond ?
haha right on, I knew you had commented over the years. It's still there but it go so big we trimmed it back huge...really thinned it out.
Brads Greenhouse & Gardening ahh I see let’s hope it grows to a nice shape
I just got one of them last year for Christmas and it has already grown two feet over the summer. I dont need to winterize it here.
+Stevie G Awesome 😊
-10C equals to 14F. Those Trachycarpus palms he's handling can survive down to 0F or -18C.
Zone 8B is good for Washingtonia. Judging by your accent you are in Ireland?
He is in Canada not far from me

Rodney McKay of overwinter palm trees.
In my city I’ve seen people that achieved to grow coconut palms lol
