Sabal 'Oregon'
Hardy Palmetto Palm Seeds
Hard to find seeds originally sourced from an Oregon property that has many Sabal species, we believe this is an extremely hardy cross of Sabal birmingham with another hardy Sabal palm on the property (minor (McCurtain), brazoriensis, louisiana, or mexicana). This palm is arborescent (trunk-forming) and grows faster and larger than regular Sabal palms, yet is just as cold-hardy as Sabal minor. This Sabal 'Oregon' Palm is a beautiful hardy hybrid palm tree that can reach heights of 8 to 15+ feet, depending on climate conditions. It seems to be be a fast grower, and has performed incredibly well in the cold high desert climate in Oregon! It is hardy to at least USDA zone 7, and parent trees have seen temperatures well below -0F. These particular trees were grown on a property in Oregon which is listed as a zone 7a, so they should hold good cold hardiness. These seeds will grow into impressive palms that make excellent additions to your hardy exotic plant collection, or just make a unique statement in your yard.
