winterizing windmill palms

12 years ago

My Windmill Palm is 3 yrs. old Every winter we cover it & keep the root warm with a heat lamp on a timer. The plant lives but we lose the fronds every year. I cut them off because they are all brown & dry & we start from scratch again every spring. We cover the entire plant with an insulated box. This prevents any sun light from reaching the plant. We live in Chicago where freezing temps are the norm. Is there any way to protect the palm & not lose the fronds every year.? It's almost time to winterize again.

Thanks
