South Mississippi gardeners say dead palm trees could bounce back during warmer spring
SUMMARY: In South Mississippi, gardeners are hopeful that dead-looking palm trees affected by last month’s historic snowstorm may recover as spring approaches. Tanya Ran from Courtney Farms noted that the storm severely impacted her fishtail palms, which lack cold tolerance. She emphasizes pruning unhealthy branches and checking the bark for signs of life. Golfport resident Kathy Van Zuffin observed that while some plants like her Japanese maple suffered, others thrived. Experts suggest cutting off dead leaves to prevent disease and promote healthy growth, as longer spring days and warmer temperatures encourage new leaf development in recovering palms.
Many gardeners in South Mississippi are looking to bounce back from February’s winter storm that left their palm trees damaged.
