Sabal uresana in Austin, Texas

Recommended Posts

Three different individuals of Sabal uresana. Two are the bluer, slower growing form, possibly from higher elevations; the smaller one due to slower growth from less  total sun hours overall.  The one next to fence is a little more green but is definitely a faster growing form, possibly from lower elevations.

Freaking awesome yard.. !!

Is that your a/c drain behind the first uresana pic?  I'm curious how much water that generates...

Beautiful palms & cycads! I have a Uresana about the size of yours, how many leaves does the highland forms put out for you a year? 

Hesperia,Southern CA (High Desert area). Zone 8b

Elevation; about 3600 ft.

Lowest temp. I can expect each year 19/20*f lowest since I've been growing palms *13(2007) Hottest temp. Each year *106

AC pipe drip is approximately one drop every 3 seconds. That is why I stuck the Sabal uresana there :) 

Highland form in sun put of 4 leaves this year so far, likely one or two more due to extreme heat, which it seemed to love. Last year it put out 4 leaves total but last summer was very rainy with much less heat overall

Thats a good spot for it 😁

5-6 leaves ain't bad at all. I should have 4 soon & I think that'll be it for mine this year.
