I'm really disappointed that my Chamaerops humilis 'cerifera' has not handled this winter well. I honestly don't recall having it out in any extreme cold. It probbaly saw a string of nights near 20F, but wasn't exposed to anymore cold than my variegated Cordyline australis (Torbay Dazzler) and that plant is rated as an 8b.
In the past, the Blue European Fan Palm has been a really reliable palm for me. I had a small one for many years, some years unprotected. It would die back but always recover.
We'll see how this one does. I have it inside against a sunny window & poured hydrogen peroxide down the crown. At least the fronds look okay.
