We have a Chinese Windmill that lost ALL of its foliage about 9 months ago. We have been told that to give it time before we write it off as dead. I am wondering if there is still a chance that it will come back after 9 months? We live in the San Diego region.

I wonder if these palms like dry(ish) mild winters and wetter warm(er) summers…
