The Windmill Palm can easily withstand annual winter temperatures dipping from 0F to -10F without any significant damage to its dark lustrous leaves. Its characteristic slender, petite trunk with a full head of dark green palmate leaves gives any landscape a classy look, fit for royalty (Grows in Zones 5-10. Refer to Zone Map.)

The Sago Palm is the most commercially grown palm in the world. It is grown as a decorative plant in containers in homes, hotels, and municipal buildings all over the world. It is also widely grown as an ornamental plant in warmer climate landscapes.

This very symmetrical plant supports a crown of shiny, dark green leaves on a thick shaggy trunk that is typically about 8 in. in diameter, sometimes wider. The trunk is very low to subterranean in young plants but lengthens above ground with age. It can grow into very old specimens with over 20 feet of trunk; however, the plant is very slow-growing and requires about 50-100 years to achieve this height.

The Palmetto Palm tree is the dwarf version of the Cabbage (Sabal) palm. It may slowly reach a mature height of 8-12 feet, with an equal spread.

The Palmetto has a rich green or bluish-green leaf, and grows as a shrub palm for most landscape settings. Sabal palmetto grows up to 65 ft in height, with a trunk up to 2 ft diameter. It is a distinct fan palm. The flowers are yellowish-white.

It is extremely salt-tolerant and is often seen growing near the Atlantic Ocean coast. Sabal palmetto is very cold-hardy–it is commonly accepted that Sabal palmetto is able to survive relatively short periods of temperatures as low as 7 F (-14 C). However, it has also been reported to survive temperatures much lower.

Maintenance of the Cabbage Palm tree is very easy and very adaptable. The Cabbage Palm is known to tolerate drought, standing water and brackish water. Even though this palm is drought-tolerant, it thrives on regular light watering and regular feeding. It is highly tolerant of salt winds, but not saltwater flooding.

If you want a Date Palm look but live in zones 6-8, then the Pindo Palm is the best choice for you. It has survived the occasional dip to 0 degrees F across the upper South.

The Pindo Palm offers long arching elegant leaves that are a lighter green with a silvery highlight on many specimens. It is considered relatively fast growing for a palm tree and can produce delicious edible fruit after 7-10 years. Many folks use this fruit to make a sweet jelly, hence the name Jelly Palm.
