Palms in Tulsa

Recommended Posts

Wes Lanphier and I discovered this beautiful native population of McCurtain County Sabal minor in August 2006.

Thanks to Wes and " Oklahoma Gardening" for this excellent video documentation.

Very cool video!

I'm guessing these did all right in this last freeze? Have you been back there recently to check 'em out?

I just realized this video may be from this summer.

thanks for sharing.

Solid zone 9, I can expect at least one night in the mid to low twenties every year.

Hot, dry summers. Cold, wet winters.

I live two hours south of McCurtain County. Nothing is gonna phase those palms temperature-wise. It's been well below zero F in McCurtain County historically.

I just purchased a few acres of land just north of Longview Texas , near Daingerfield. What type of palms should I try? Will Butia and Med fan palms be a good choice? How about any of the Date palms and Washingtonia? I have also found some Sabal minor near my Texas property in Morris County. Do you have any minors in the Longview area?
