I visited Don's Amazing Garden in Oklahoma City Oklahoma, It's
zone 7b and this Sabal Uresana is never harm by the cold there.
Don had it for 15 years, it grows really really slow. No signs of trunk
in 15 years and its about 6 foot tall, its a much slower grow palm
compare with Sabal Palmetto even Sabal Birmingham.
I love the powder blue color and the solid feel of the leaves. Unlike Sabal Louisana all the leaves are broken can even see the fan shape
in a windy state like Oklahoma.

relatively slow grower, but worth it due to bluish coloration of leaves. This is one of the best looking Sabals to grow, especially in the hot tropics where the blue color seems to stand out more. As it ages, some of the blue fades to a glaucous green, but it's still attractive. The leaves have more pendant leaflet tips than most of the other Sabal palms. From Sonora Mexico
