The Phoenix roebelenii palm is one of the most feminine palm trees you will ever see. Its lush dark green fronds are more delicate than those of most other palms and they grow in a graceful arching habit. Pygmy palm trees can also be grown in zone 9a. There are many of them planted in my central Florida neighborhood. I don't recommend planting them this far north because they suffer extensive frond damage in the freezes we have here. Usually, the tree will recover. But why grow a palm that will be unsightly for 5-6 months of the year when there are so many others that would be beautiful year round?
