Kev Posted by Rob on June 15, 2025, 5:19 pm I spoke to two ladies from Hornsby, Tennessee and they were very knowledgeable on those sabal minors in SW Tennessee : One lady told me the little lady who lived there died several years ago and the little house is for sale and that she planted them decades ago and they have naturalized on several streets in that little village. Another lady said she brought back a little palm tree decades ago from a vacation. They are naturalized. That little lady sure had the spirit like Mr Cole from Tennessee and Mr Manley from Georgia. The hunt continues.

Re: Kev Posted by Kevin seTN on June 15, 2025, 9:22 pm, in reply to "Kev" Really? That's cool! They do look naturalized, especially how they come up under trees and around fences, which is an indication of birds eating and spreading them. That's an awesome find. That would be a cool road trip.

Re: Kev Posted by Barry Senatobia, MS on June 18, 2025, 4:01 pm, in reply to "Kev" Rob my wife is from Jackson Tennessee z7b and always thought there could be sabal minor south of there but good to hear you got feedback from that location.
