    You can prune the flowers off before they become fruit.

    Oops! How embarrassing! I somehow glossed right over the end of your answer which DID address container size. I'm so sorry!

    Thanks for your answer, but it didn't address my question, which had to do with container size, not general information about jelly palms.

    Although it won't grow beyond 30 feet in height, the leaf span can spread to an impressive 20 feet, and its trunk base can exceed 2 feet. Still, the single trunk, slow root growth and extreme drought tolerance make it an excellent candidate for container growing. You will need a sturdy container with good drainage.
    A 30 gallon container should be sufficient for many years.

    It would seem that the best time to plant these is during the warmer seasons such as late spring or early summer. Here is an article that will give you more information on the care of these plants: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/pindo-palm/growing-pindo-palm-trees.htm

    If it starts to get any lower than -15C than this will cause the damage you are seeing. Even with burlap, it may be just a little too cool for this. If this is not the case, then it could be experiencing an infection. Can you give me more information about the conditions it has been experiencing?

    Thanks for your answer Bush Doctor

    it hasn't been much colder than -5 or -6 over night and I also have the heat tape wrapped around the pot, trunk and in and around the fronds so I don't think the cold has anything to do with this.

    What should I be looking for if this is some sort of infection ? This is my first year with a palm and don't really know anything about them. Any suggestions would be appreciated

    Thanks BushDoctor
