    It is generally not recommended that you prune sago palms for height as this will most likely kill the plant. For your situation, however, you may want to consider stripping the lower fronds so that they do not block the line of sight to the road.

    You can treat it with either a chemical fungicide or neem oil. Both should be available at any store that sells gardening supplies.

    You do not need to do anything for the mother plant. The wound will harden off on the mother the same as it does on the pup. If you try to cover the wound, you can actually create an environment where disease and fungus can grow.

    They can survive short bursts of cold, but not for very long. I would cover the plants if possible. This article can help you with protecting your plants during an unexpected freeze: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/environmental/protect-plants-in-freeze.htm
