@cschulz02 growing it!!🀣🀣🀣 We've had this palm for 15 years or more! Got one in the front yard too! The windmill palm is very very hardy, this has been incased in ice twice and I can't count how many snows and freezing temps! So there ya go!!πŸ€£πŸ’˜πŸ˜

@ShelleySnyder - You are amazing. You’ll try anything, won’t you?! Next thing I know, you’ll have half of FL in your back yard! Planted & thriving. 🌴🌺🐾

@nancyanne windmill palms are a very tough palm! I'm not positive but I'm thinking the low zone is 5 on it. When you start looking around you actually see a lot of them in the Seattle and outlying area's πŸ’˜πŸ˜
