Phoenix dactylifera X roebelenii

So would a Phoenix dactylifera X roebelenii look like a mini- edible date? Anyone have any pictures or info on this palm? Surely it's common in Mediterranean climates where both specimens grow with ease, and I know Phoenix species hybridize easily. This seems like something that would be interesting when full grown, so any pics? Thanks

Here a pic of Roebellini x dacty .

Dacty x roebellini should be different, and will be great to see some pics of it!

    ...That an upload of a photo has failed?

    :) I see that this thread might get 'more bites" in the "Cold Hardy" section ? :)

    :greenthumb: Yes Pete, you got it. I added a COLD HARDY tag under the thread title just to see how it would appear. I wish it were more prominent, but it's better than nothing. I hope folks will start tagging their threads this way where appropriate, making it easier for like-minded palmsters to find what they are looking for on PalmTalk.

    I have one that looks sort of like it might be this hybrid but I'm not sure, it came in a pot of regular robelleni and it was quickly apparent that it was not a robelleni. It's the palm on the far left of this photo, sorry I dont have a better photo but I wont be back in Ocala until late April :(
