Severe Hail and Wind Damage
Had severe hail and wind damage Sunday morning.
Notice how the leaves are so clean cut on this Ice Cream! ... ... Here is another Ice Cream that got ripped up. ... ... Finally, these are great Sabas that are pumping out leaves. ... ... I am sure all will recover in the next few weeks.

Re: Severe Hail and Wind Damage
I''m sure they'll bounce back in no time. I've seen mine look almost as bad just from high winds before!

Re: Severe Hail and Wind Damage
Here we get lots of wind being one of the top kitesurfing destinations - of course this doesn't help nanas especially the tall ones. Thats why I only grow the medium height plants - but even if they get shredded - they soon come back so don't worry!!
