Trish S 1 Report post Posted September 24, 2020 Probably wishful thinking but I am wondering if there are any small palms that will grow well in zone 9 Northern California (Delta winds) Area in a full western exposure with no shade? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chester B 2,950 Report post Posted September 29, 2020 I would think Chamaerops humilis or Nannarhops ritchiana (maybe too big) might work. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jubaea_James760 631 Report post Posted September 29, 2020 Hello, Welcome! Which city or area of northern California? Might help a bit to determine whether your a 9a/9b. This could make a difference. Also, how small are we talking about? Sabal minor ( many variations to pick from) Brahea Decumbens Brahea Moorei Serenoa Repens (stays small for a very long time) Butia Lallementia ( might be hard to acquire) Butia Matogrossensis There's a ton of palmy look alikes that should do well in zone 9 (cycads) Cycas, Dioon, Encephalartos, Zamia.
