Recommended Posts

Low of 14F. 14 days straight of below freezing temps. 50% overhead protection. ~50 Plants in pots (3gal). No damage.

One planted in ground as a 5 gal last year with no overhead protection showed 50% leaf damage and the spear pulled. Pushed up what was left of the spear last month and is pushing up a new leaf.

No damage to a 3-gallon sized plant from 16F ultimate low with several nightly lows in the upper 20's and lower 30's. Palm was covered with a plastic pot on the 16F night.

I have several different Sabals on the property. Don't have a clue what any of them are? Non took any damage at all at 20, so at least I could rule out a couple of them, right? :floor:

No damage on an established S. uresana in an exposed site. Low of 13F to 15F with wind. There was a major ice storm a month later, but still no damage.

Metallic green colored version 5' overall height and in ground almost 2 years.  Unprotected with some live oak canopy.  One week after consecutive nights of 9°F and 16°F with ice and snow and nearly 110 consecutive hours below freezing.  50% of foliage damage and some damage to newest spear but spear is intact.  Time will tell but looks like it will survive.

The silver/blue “highland” form at John Fairey Garden barely burned from 5 days below freezing and an ultimate low of 6°F (February 2021)

Wonder if this is reasonably the hardiest palm out there with size.

Probably, I haven’t found an exact match to these elsewhere. It seems green—->blue——> silver in terms of Uresana hardiness.
