Sabal gretherae is native to the NE tip of Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. It was described in 1991 and is considered the rarest Sabal in the world. It just recently entered cultivation. I germinated seeds of this palm a year ago. I don't have room for every palm on my property and need to find new homes for two of them. I have found this palm to be robust and relatively fast growing for a Sabal - the two strap leaf seedlings I have for sale are outgrowing their 1g pots. I'm not sure of this species' coldhardiness but my unprotected seedlings saw an ultimate low of 34F and other nights in the 30s with no damage so I suspect they are hardy to zone 9, perhaps lower. S. gretherae wants what all Sabals want: lots of sun and heat.

The particulars:

Sabal gretherae: one (1) for $25         OR     two (2) for $45.00

Shipping Cost Included in price. Plants will be sent via Priority Mail. I will remove from pot, wrap roots in damp orchid most, clear wrap and foil.

Payment via Paypal

No shipping overseas. No shipping to HI.

NOTE: Please contact me via Private Message. DO NOT use Status Update - I will not respond

Same. I didnt find much on it except that it is similar to S. mexicana aside for differences in fruit and flowers, and in having leaflets that are about double as wide as mexicana.

I don't have any photos of my own to offer and I don't swipe other people's photos off the internet. But RPS shows photos of adult palms in its seed listings, either in Small Packets or Archive.
