Will My Palm Trees Grow Back After Freeze

If a freeze is only partial, some palm material may survive and be able to grow, but the damaged areas will never recover. Brown, drooping fronds can be removed or left to fall on their own. If a palm survives, new fronds will grow, but it will take time for them to grow to the size of the mature fronds.

How long does it take a palm tree to come back after a freeze?

It might take from 6 months to one year from the freeze for the palm tree to recover. If the bud tissue has been severely damaged, the palm might not survive.

How do you revive a palm tree after freezing?

Wait for the affected palm to produce new growth, and do not remove the affected fronds until the danger of additional hard freezes is over. Affected palms should not be irrigated or fertilized now. Fertilize palms during the active growing season from as early as late spring to early fall.
