COLD HARDY!!

Our entire inventory of Sylvester Palms is inoculated on schedule to prevent the spread of LBD!

Description

Sylvester palms are a cold-hardy, resilient choice for avenue plantings or as bold accent trees. Their strong trunk structure and full canopy make them suited for both formal and naturalized landscapes.

In formal settings, matched sizes create symmetry and rhythm. In less formal designs, staggered heights form a layered grove or broad canopy effect.

Sylvesters are freeze tolerant and landscape durable, delivering both structure and staying power.
