Sylvester Palm

The Sylvester Palm is the 'gold standard' for homeowners who want a majestic, upscale look without the massive footprint of larger palms. Its shimmering, silvery blue-green fronds and architecturally perfect 'diamond-cut' trunk create an immediate focal point that boosts your home's curb appeal and market value."

A few reasons why home and business owners choose Sylvester Palms: Low Maintenance, High Resilience: Unlike many tropical plants, the Sylvester is incredibly tough. It is cold-hardy down to 15°F and highly drought-tolerant once established, meaning it stays vibrant through winter snaps and dry summers with very little help from you. It features a non-invasive root system, making it perfectly safe to plant near pools, patios, or driveways without worrying about expensive damage to your foundation or concrete. For many, the highlight is the trunk. When trimmed, it reveals a gorgeous diamond pattern giving your landscape a polished, custom-designed feel that usually costs thousands at a luxury resort. Sylvester Palms make an exceptional landscape feature in the entrance of your home, poolside, or to frame your home with tall Sylvester Palms on either side.
