Sabal Palmetto 'Fat Boy'. A sabal that we grew from seed and planted here. This palm survived the 2018 freeze that killed so many palmettos in the area. Its self-seeded 10' offspring has been rapidly growing at its base since 2018.

Very high quality and colorful shrubs.
October 2024
The nursery looks empty this time of year and folks have always rode by and thought we are not here anymore because they don't see any plants. Since the disastrous freeze of 1983 we have put our container grown plants in many unheated winter protection houses every winter.. This is to protect the roots since they are in containers which could freeze if it is a really bad freeze. We just finished moving into houses and/or covering 10,000 plants or more for this winter and hoping we don't need it. The plants are still available for sale year round. Variable hours so please call 252-637-6858 before coming out. 2025 - Our 50th year and we thank you.
