Hi, I'm still fairly new to DG, and I am so glad I've found this wonderful place! I hope that you will be able to help me.

A few years ago, my husband and I had purchased this palm tree in South Carolina - it was to remind us of a 5-month business trip that had taken us there. At the time, we lived in Virginia, and never had any problems with it. This year, we live in Pennsylvania, in the mountains, and we had a freakish snow storm one night that hadn't been predicted in the weather reports. Well, since the weather had been around 65-70 degrees on most days, we didn't expect the snow, and left the palm tree outside. Needless to say, it sustained frost damage. We've been trying to nurse it back to health, but didn't know what we should be doing, since we have no experience with this.

Can anyone tell us the name of this tree? Also, will it survive and if so, how long will it be before it turns green again?

Thanks,
Deborah
