Sabal uresana is a stunning Sabal palmetto relative that hails from 3,000' elevation in the valleys and foothills of the Sierra Madre Occidental in western Mexico. So far, Sabal uresana has performed well in some East Coast Zone 8 gardens, so it needs to be trialed further north. Sabal uresana is rather slow, but eventually (in your grandkids lifetime) makes a stunning 30' tall tree with costapalmate silvery-green leaves and a contrasting dark brown trunk. If you enjoy experimenting, Sabal uresana is an excellent hardy palm tree to try.
