Another wild stand of Sabal Minors.
Just got back from collecting more S. Minor seed. This stand is next to the banks of the upper Ashley River.

Growing palms and other exotic plants here in the Southern Gulf Islands.
Hey Ryan. Yes S. Minor's natural habitat is as a under story plant. In their natural habitat they grow large leaves & long stems to compensate for the low light conditions. When planted out in direct sun they do very well, but grow shorter stems & smaller leaves (Fronds). They also seem to get a deeper almost Blue coloration when grown in direct sun.

Laaz great photos of natural habitat for those S. minors. Are there any needle palms growing wild in your area?
