[Love them palms]

Just ordered  a Butia pindo blue x jubaea  today.says it's very cold hardy.I live in the PNW mukilteo  area zone 8b. anyone have good luck with this hybrid?

I'm in Seattle and I've got both blue pindo and jubaea, but not the hybrid. My butia have been fairly consistent in pushing 6 fronds a season, the jubaea pushing 3. You'll have to let me know if it's if true that they say it grows faster than either parent.
