Palms Questions
What palms grow in St. Augustine?+
Several cold-hardy and tropical-look palms grow in Zone 9b; choose by mature height, cold tolerance, and how much space the crown needs.
When is the best time to plant palms?+
Palms establish best in the warm season when soil is warm and roots grow actively.
How do I care for a palm after planting?+
Keep new palms watered while they establish and avoid over-pruning green fronds, which the palm needs for energy.
How do I choose a palm for my yard?+
Match the mature height and spread to the space, and check cold tolerance for Zone 9b. Tell us the spot and look you want and our team can help you choose.
Do palms need special fertilizer?+
Palms often benefit from a balanced palm fertilizer with micronutrients, since our sandy soils can run low on the magnesium and potassium palms need.
Which palms are cold-hardy enough for Northeast Florida?+
Sabal (cabbage) palm, the Florida state tree, along with windmill palm, pindo palm, needle palm, and European fan palm, handle the occasional hard freezes in our zone 9a.
How do I protect a palm from a hard freeze?+
Water well before a freeze, and on tender species tie up the fronds and wrap the trunk. Hold off on late-season fertilizer. Cold-hardy palms usually need no protection at all.
