Cut down dead Christmas Palms… now what?

Both clusters of my Christmas Palms had cold damage from the cold snap in Florida this past winter, some of which didn’t make it.

I took everyone’s advice to cut the stump as low the ground as possible, but now what? Is there anything else I’m supposed to do? Is there anything I should do/check for on the ones which are barely making it?

Also if helpful, located near SWFL and we’ve been in a severe drought the past few months with water restrictions to once per week.

I have two Christmas palms where one of the stumps on each set died during the Florida freeze this past winter. Do I just cut them down as low to the ground as possible and leave them? Essentially will I just have two sets of two palms now versus three?
