Palm protection for zones 6-8. Use for adding 1-2 zones of protection for any palm up to 6' tall. These Trachycarpus fortunei palms can be wrapped like this for 3 months. Outside shell is more for precipitation protection and a little insulation. The heat comes from inside wrapped frost cloth over mini incandescent Christmas lights.
