Two other winter survivors are these beautiful red-leafed banana palms. When I bought the pair back in June of 2007, they were in six inch pots and all of 12" high!
By last October they were 7' tall. And even though the winter wasn't easy, they accepted the accommodations and faded very slowly; so that their therapy upon returning outside back in late April was to slowly trim away the dying and weak fronds while feeding them and in both cases stake them up for the first 6 weeks. TLC that has clearly paid off!
