Frostbitten Pygmy Palms: Wait for Spring Regrowth

Several pygmy palms with frostbite. Temps in 30s—all fronds brown. Come back or trim all brown fronds (some all fronds)? Green at trunk connection only. Suggestions?

Expert Advice

Cold-stressed palms unpredictable—some recover, others fail. Spray center (frond emergence) with copper fungicide to deter fungal problems, keep properly irrigated. New growth (if any) develops in coming months from center, or continues deteriorating requiring replacement.
