Dave the arums looking bit sorry for themselves but still sound. Do you still want them????? Leaves all gone but "trunks" as it were still solid.

4 year old dactyl is a tiddler and probably not hardy at all, but remember dactyl likes dry atmosphere so rather than a heater under the fleece you will need a dehumidifier
Coconut palms in uk... not a chance... you'll probably find that someone has looked at a hardiness record, and appearently Cocos nutrifera can withstand -0.9C.... I can survive -70C but only for a few seconds... same thing.
You have to view buying a Coconut palm in the same way as you buy cut flowers... a couple of weeks and you throw them out.
Best regs
