| | Cold-Hardy Palms in Southwestern Ohio: Winter Damage, Mortality and Recovery |
 | | Species included Rhapidophyllum hystrix (needle palm), Sabal minor (dwarf palmetto), Sabal minor “Louisiana” (blue-stem palmetto), Trachycarpus fortunei (Chinese windmill palm), Trachycarpus takil (Himalayan windmill palm), Sabal palmetto (cabbage palm), Sabal etonia (scrub palmetto), Sabal bermudana (Bermuda cabbage palm), and Serenoa repens (saw palmetto). |
 | | Left to right; seedling Trachycarpus fortunei, three seedling Rhapidophyllum hystrix surrounding a sexually mature individual, sexually mature S. |
 | | The relative degree of leaf tissue damage we observed in palm species closely paralleled the consensus minimum survival temperatures for these species recorded in the literature (SEPEPS 1994, Walters 1998, Noblick 1998, Avent 2000, McKiness 2000, Francko 2000). |
