Collectorpalms Posted May 6, 2022 Report Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) Pictures 4/6/2022 Sabal Uresana, the green-gray coastal form I Believe purchased from Barton Springs Nursery around 2009 as a 5 gallon. Week of 32F and below, 6-8 inches snow, 1 inch ice. Had to trunk cut it. The new spear was rotted and it was too big to push out new growth.

The fronds are quite large, it is one of the larger leaf Sabals. I had a Washingtonia Robusta Hybrid do it. So I am not sure if this is a normal habit. I think I am very happy with it. Believe it or not, at one time I wanted to remove it when it wasn’t silvery enough… but if any palm can take that kind of cold it’s worthy of keeping.

Will Simpson Posted May 8, 2022 Report Share Posted May 8, 2022 Nice decision to cut down into the trunk . In my 2018 similar cold snap here I wish I had trunk cut one of my Palmettos . I just kept watching thinking I was seeing growth and by about early June I realized it was toast . Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
