Thanks for answering! I hven't heard of Lomatia myricoides before, but it seems hardy enough (and thanks for the tip about woodlanders - they do have it in stock.) I have done a little research, and I believe I have found a few others that are hardy enough. It seems that both Protea dracomontana (Drakensberg Sugarbush) and subvestita (Waterlily Sugarbush), along with both Grevillea victoriae (Royal Grevillea) and juniperina (Juniper Grevillea), and Embothrium coccineum 'Lanceolatum' (Chilean Fire Bush) should be able to bear the winter. I'm still trying to find out more information; anything will help! Also, I'm going to follow your advice and post a copy of this on the main hardy palms board.
