As the planner (and co-planter) of the collection, let me say thank you for this video. As president of the Southeastern Palm Society, I organized purchasing and/or growing many of the palms in the collection, including all of the palms in the Sabal garden. We began planting palms there in 1997. There were three or four old Butia and Chamaeops at that time, but all other palms were planted in the last 30 years. Thanks!
What a great collection. That looked like a Livistona decora syn. decipiens at 2:21, It's good to know that species can live that far north. Also, it looks like they have at least two Sabal 'Lisa' at 12:02, really tall too. I could be wrong about that though. Great video, thanks for presenting this garden!
I want to challenge the labeling of the palm at the 4:22 mark. The tag says Washingtonia Filifera, but to my eyes, it reeks of a hybrid with W. Robusta -- the commonly titled Washingtonia 'Filibusta.' This tree is too thin and long in the trunk and the crown of fronds looks too ratty to be a full-blood Filifera. Now, if someone wants to chime in and say that it really is a full-blooded Filifera, and that it looks the way it does because of Savannah's hot/damp summers, I might be willing to concede some ground.
Love the comment. I don't study the Washingtonias so I would love to hear someone's opinion. The garden has a lot of history. Can't wait to go back for a deeper dive. I was on a time limit.
Either I'm just ocd or an asshole but this potentially beautiful collection of palms would look soooo much better if they would cut the old brown fronds off. Either way that's quite a collection of sabal....even if they aren't manicured....to my liking lol

THANKS so much!
Some great palms! I will keep adding to my collection
Great video! Those are some beautiful sabals, and I can’t believe how large those Louisianas were. Amazing!
Awesome collection
Beautiful collection for sure. Nice video 👍
FWIW, that's a solid zone 9a there.
Perfect climate to really push the sabal minors to their full potential
Спасибо огромние за видио

Correct. There actually are two on the property, both planted in 1998.
@@CitrusPalmsWithTom Thanks for that info!
I've got 600 of these seedlings 8:46

I think it was just a robusta straight up
That’s probably right. We purchased them in 2000 as smaller palms labeled filifera, but we didn’t get the advertised product.
Palms look rough need trimming and boot the trunks.
It is Sabal minor?
they're labeled but there were sabal minors
