Also known as Sabal causiarum, this palm has a monstrous trunk, that can eclipse a Royal. It is extremely cold hardy and IMG_2164.thumb.jpeg.5a1c558d25ca0ba42af3307b8dd538ba.jpegI do not understand why it is not grown in numerous locations.

    I think I need to get myself one of these. How long does it take to grow from seedling to this size?

    It may take a little while to get to this size. It probably is 70 years plus. However, it is a relatively fast grower and is known to handle West Coast conditions particularly well.

    Hoping mine speeds up now that it's gaining some size.  I have five in the ground since 2022 and this one's my largest - all about 5 years from seed.  Not my fastest Sabal but a close second to 'Riverside'.
