Here are some before and after photos of a sabal minor (dwarf palmetto) palm growing literally on the 5B/6A line in Indiana. The first two photos are from late April, the third photo is from today. By the end of summer it will probably put out 3 to 4 leaves. This is the fourth year in the ground. #palmtrees #coldhardypalms #indianapalmtrees #dwarfpalmetto #sabalminor #carmelindiana #palmeras #palmiers (at Carmel, Indiana)

These are some of the inground palms I have an Indiana. From left to right: saw palmetto (in its second year), two sabal minors (left in its first year and to the right its fourth year). They handle the winter better than I do. At least I escape to Florida. #sawpalmetto #serenoarepens #sabalminor #dwarfpalmetto #indianapalmtrees #carmelindiana

A dwarf palmetto that lives in the ground here in zone 5B/6A. It's been there since 2013 and I planted a companion to the left of it this spring. #dwarfpalmetto #sabalminor #palmtree #palmtrees #indianapalmtrees #coldhardypalms #palmeiras #palmeras #palmier (at Carmel, Indiana)

An interesting before and after comparison of a Sabal minor in zone 5B/6A in Indianapolis. The first picture is from March 2016 and the second picture is August 2016. Each year it puts out about 3 threes. This year I might try wrapping it to save the leaves. Otherwise, it just resprouts in March. / Sabal minor en marzo 2016 y de nuevo en agosto. Sobrevive acá en zona 5B/6A. #sabalminor #dwarfpalmetto #indianapalmtrees #coldhardypalms #sabalpalm #palm #palmtree #palmera #palmeira #palmier (at Carmel, Indiana)
