Hi All,

I have some brugs outside this winter. I cover them when a cold night is predicted. They did lose their leaves, but were doing fine until -- my daughter's blasted dogs trampled all over them. I saw the other day that one of them is putting new leaves out from the bottom. I do think the others are still alive, but they sure are shorter than they were.

Here are some sites that list cold-hardy palms info:

PS: I tagged this thread so I can find it again. Love this info -- just great!

Photo of a brug last summer in downtown Tuscaloosa. I saw it the other day. Didn't appear to me that anybody covered it or protected it with anything. It is leafless, but it's clearly been there for several years.
