Unfortunately, I have become an expert at what does NOT work. Chances are, you may be an expert too. Until I had an encounter with this mean, hateful fungus I had no idea it was so difficult to get rid of! So hereâs what happened.
If I look at the hardiness Zone map it looks like I'am in zone 7 (light green)on the farmers almanac map. But when I type in my zipcode for farmers almanac it says I am zone 5. Which in my mind is a big difference so How am I to know which zone to go by.
Determine first if the Medjool date palm is hardy in your region. Growing well in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 8 through 12, it tolerates light frosts and mild subfreezing temperatures in climates that do not have heavy, wet soils during the chill of winter.
