Sago

My Sago leaves froze this winter. I believe that the main part of the plant is ok. My question is, do I cut off the part of the leaves that froze?

You will need to remove the yellow and brown fronds this spring but only those as they will not come back. Do not remove green fronds.

It is hard to say how well they will grow back. Sago palms do not deal well with lost fronds, but they have been known to recover fine.
