Can grow in all areas of Florida and survive extremely low temperature of 18oF. They are conducive for streets and highway growing or yards where height is not a problem as they can grow to heights of 70 to 100 feet.
Canary Island Date Palm/Pineapple Palm
This palm is a beauty and needs to be frequently trimmed and pruned to preserve its aesthetic value. It can reach heights of 40 to 50 feet and spreads out like a pineapple with a massive canopy. Thus, it requires some space to effectively grow. It originates from the Canary Islands and grows slowly with ability to survive low temperatures of 15oF to 18oF.
