Palm tree

My sons palm tree died during this bad winter. He cut 3/4 of the top and just left 1/4 in ground now there are 4 shoots growing from the bottom at the roots. Can these be taken up and replanted. They are firmly bedded.

 

From your description jd it sounds like the 'palm' is a Cordyline not a true palm but nevertheless palm like. A pic would help.
They usually sucker from around the base but they are not easy to remove and root, best left on the trunk and leave it as multi-headed. Ideally the trunk should be cut back to a foot or so.

 

These new shoots will grow into a new multi stemmed tree and look fab

 

Hope your palms are gorgeous already. I was in the same situantion5 years ago, but as whis4ey says, now it looks beautiful!
