Re: Burr.... it's getting cold out!

Hmm. They do here, and they did in New Jersey. Since they kept off the frost in New Orleans, I would think that the difference would only be a degree or two, but with a bit of early frost, that's all you need.

I had a palm-nut friend here in Atlanta that used to wrap his plants with Christmas lights, then a sheet, then plastic to keep off the wet and his plants would survive. That was back in the days when Atlanta would regularly get into the teens, and occasionally below zero.
