zegroeg 2 Report post Posted April 12 I live in the Tampa Bay area and looking for Washingtonia Robusta palms for my back yard. Can’t seem to find a nursery/farm/seller that has them. Anyone in central Florida know of a place that sells and delivers them? Don’t need anything big — maybe 6-8 feet tall. Unfortunately the frost this winter took all my foxtails and Christmas palms, so want to replace them with something that’s more cold hardy. Other suggestions welcome, too. Thanks in advance! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sunscape usually has Washingtonia robusta at that size: https://www.sunscapeinc.com/ I'm certainly surprised you lost Wodyetia bifurcata (Foxtail Palm) and Adonidia merrillii (Christmas Palm) in Tampa this winter!

zegroeg 2 Report post Posted April 13 Thanks - I’ll check them out. My yard faces a pond and it’s wide open, so I think that’s what did it. The foxtails in our front yard are growing back nicely though! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OC2Texaspalmlvr 1,135 Report post Posted April 20 Why don't you try a Bismarckia Nobilis. Plenty cold hardy and much more of a statement piece then any Washingtonia could ever do for your yard , imo T J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
