I'm pretty sure all of them do

They all do, from what I can tell. Some get huge in the pots, and bust out the bottom.

Thanks Steve and Dave

Really, I was not sure that all Sabal sp have saxophone roots. I could not find literature that I clarify this matter.

Can you indicate me some Link ?

Wow, I posted one like this a while ago. It was labeled as something else, but no wonder everyone thought it was a Sabal. And it very well may be.

It's a saxophone trunk, not root. Yes, ALL Sabal have this.

Please look in the external link section, in any Sabal species, or other palm that exhibits saxophone style root growth, it is all explained there, thanks, Ed

Keith, are you taking about your "Sabal nobilis"? I am pretty sure you got a sabal, not a bismarckia.
