Caribbean sabal, dates, California fans, and a fishtail

I have a few seedlings and small palms that I am willing to give away to anyone in or passing through the San Antonio area. I am not interested in shipping anything right now. 

First up, I have I sabal I bought as a S. causiarum. It does grow more quickly than palmetto or mexicana, but it took damage in the ground last winter at 27F and burned 100% at 23fF. So, I am not sure if it is actually causiarum.

I have a trio of W. filifera as well:

About a half dozen P. dactylifera seedlings, as well as one lager one that is already pinnate:

And a fishtail I grew from seed. It won't last the winter here. So, it is either going to burn up this winter or find a new home:PXL_20251015_231854624.thumb.jpg.337e471051b001bde9f7b2c18f86df73.jpg

Just let me know if you are interested. Thanks.

    Lmk if you change your mind on shipping the Causiarium. I can get a cheap UPS label through pirateship.com, or I can trade you a couple Bermudanas for it. Been on my bucket list for a while now and I think the seeds I bought are duds if they're even Sabal seeds at all.
