Common Name Sonora Palmetto Variety  
Regional Names Palma Blanca
Botanical Name Sabal uresana
Description My absolute 2nd favorite Sabal! Sabal uresana another large specimen of the genus this palms grand characteristic is the silver blue fronds That it has from birth. Naturally occurring in the Sonora Desert of Mexico it tolerates high heat as well as severe frost and freezing temperatures. This palm has been reported to have no damage at(7 F.), while others report some damage of 10-50% of fronds being burned at higher temperatures around (19 F.), humidity or DURATION of cold was probably a factor. Certainly this species wins as the most beautiful palm and most outstanding in the genus Sabal and definitely worthy of a place in the garden.
Notes
All of our 1 gallons are grown in a 4x4" square x 14" deep pots and 3 gallon are grown in 7x7" square x 18" deep pots to allow for a deeper root system which aids in our Palms winter survival. Customers are having much better success with our palms surviving the winter over growers that use traditional shallow pots.
