  • Top 10 Palms that will survive a normal winter without protection, based on my own experience! Thats why some hardy Trachy species, like takil and manipur, are not in this top 10. They have proven not to be hardy enough in my garden. After many spear pulls I've stopped trying...

    Good list of palms

  • @maple494
    @maple494 Před rokem +2

    The hardiest ones are actually Sabal minor and Rhapidophyllum hystrix. But I would recommend Sabal minor in a wet climate and Rhapidophyllum hystrix in a dry climate because it tends to get spear pull if it gets too much water in the crown. Also, Sabal minor likes the wet environment.

      Beautiful palms, but they are really on the edge in a northern European climate. Maybe it's possible in a good micro climate...

      They are iffy in Virginia Beach even, the ones they have don’t look too good when I’ve seen them.
      They are really best suited for the Deep South, we have them in South Alabama and they can handle this cold easily with no winter burn. South Carolina, Georgia and of course Florida they are really common

    I have a Trachy Fortunei now. I want a TRachy "nanus' also, maybe a few others. I am in zone 6a hardiness zone, BUT, I have a greenhouse for them to be in winter. They will have to be potted though. Maybe once they get REALLY big I can protect them while they are planted in the ground. I MUST say that this video says that the Sabal Minor is NOT super hardy that cold winds will damage the foliage and it grows slow so damage will be around fora good while, now, I have always heard that it is the HARDIEST palm you can get. The Sabal Minor AND the Trachy Fortunei.

    • @TropicalGardening
      @TropicalGardening  Před 4 lety +2

      It depends on the type of winter. Here we have a very wet and windy weather type and that's not good for a Sabal. Trachycarpus and Rhapidophyllum hystrix are better palms for this type of weather.

  • @frantiseknovotny2674
    @frantiseknovotny2674 Před rokem +1

    It depends where it is supposed to survive winter without protection. Here in Czechia it is very edgy. It can happen when somebody live in warmest parts of the country that most of them survive few winters without any protection and then one winter will come with few days of more severe frost and kill not only the leaves but whole plant. But if you live here higher around 500 metres or even higher above sea level it is impossible without heating cables.

      Yes indeed, but this list from 2018 was based on my own experience. I was struggling with my Takils (very slow and much frost damage), maybe this weren't real Takils...? I don't know. In my new garden I have a real Takil and it's doing fine. But it didn't had a real winter. So I'm very curious if I should make a new top 10 😉

      @@QarsherskiyExotics I am NOT sure how hardy a "Pindo": is. My GH has gotten over 100F here, and my baby "waggie" seems to have been "cooked" to death. I kept it watered too. :( My plain old "TRachy" is fine still though. The baby "Waggie" COULD still be okay, BUT, it REALLY looks bad. It had NO freezing tempos at all, I kept the temps above 35F the whole winter, BUT, as soon as the sun comes out, my greenhouse gets over 100F in there. The vent will NOT open up, so, I CAN open the door and put on the ceiling fan and it will cool off, BUT, sometimes I can NOT get there to open it up soon enough before the temps skyrocket. It has NO ceiling vent, just a vent at the back of it that will NOT open up.
      I have a Sago palm that fared well too, I know, it is NOT a REAL palm though.
      Besides the Trachy and the Sago, I have an Olive tree, and a Oleander that I have overwintered fine over the past winter. Okay, later.

      @@QarsherskiyExotics Hi again, well, the GH gets like hell in there when the sun comes out. It has no working vent, so the heat just stay inside until I come out and manually open the door window and turn on a fan in there. Sometimes I don;t get to it until it gets horribly hot inside. I can keep the GH above freezing in winter with a heater and a "thermo-cube" that turns the heater on when the temps go below 35F inside.
      My Waggie has died :( after I had repotted it, it had croaked, the heat may have stressed it too much plus the repotting. My Oleander has some branches that are looking cooked.
      1 of my 2 Olive trees has croaked too, BUT, I had also repotted BOTH Olive trees and 1 lived and is now looking cooked. I really want to bring everything out of the greenhouse for the season but we are still due for some nights in the 30's F.
      BTW, I live in the USA in zone 6a hardiness zone Pa.
      Plants have lived through the worst of winter, only to get baked in my greenhouse in spring.
      My greenhouse was an Amish built prefabricated greenhouse. It was already built and then delivered to my property.
      I can only think that maybe if I were to use some shade fabric on the roof, it would help with the heating up, BUT, that would mean less sun rays for my plants too.
      I haven't tossed out the Waggie yet, BUT, the base is all deformed, so, it is looking pretty dead to me. Maybe you can't help with the problem, BUT, what do you think about the shadecloth on part (at least part) of the roof? That is IF I can even get it up there, and get it to stay up there.

If I were you, I would even consider leaving it open day and night considering that it will likely get above 40 during the day. All of your plants should be able to handle a short 10a cold snap, right?

      @@TropicalGardening Thank you for your reply, I am keeping my 2 Trachys in my heated Greenhouse until they get a good bit of size to them, after that, I will try and make a heated shelter over them in winter after I plant them into the ground,. I have seen a video on CZcams of how a guy about 50-70 miles from me has kept his palms in winter in shelters with heat added successfully for several years, it is under "Growing palms in Avella, Pa" or something similar to that. He makes wire shelters covered with several layers of covering and adds "incandescent" bulbs for some heat. I will likely keep mine in my GH for several years before doing that. That guy has been having success for at LEAST 4 years most likely 6 years, I am just worried IF the power goes out, that COULD happen in my Greenhouse too though. Later. :)
