Looking for cold hardy palm trees around 5 gallon bucket size in Missouri. I need a palm tree that will survive winters that dip down to 5 to 0 degrees from time to time. Is there a nursery where I could pick one up? NOTE I am not looking for seeds I am looking for 5 gallon bucket sized cold hardy palms. Already established! Willing to spend up to 200 dollars. Thanks for your time!!
No greenhouse for them to live in. If you have no idea or dont know what a cold hary palm is (yes they exist just type cold hardy palm into google) then please do not waste my time by answering sorry to be harsh but it gets old we people do that.

Get on a link called hardiestpalms.com and plan to spend more than $200.00 for them.
For a 5 gallon pot of anything in Massachusetts at a good garden center,$200.00 is bottom price, and no I don't think it is O.K. to be harsh because you are old! My mom is 92 and still gardens, and is never harsh.
Harsh shows no character on your part!!!

I did Yahoo "Cold Hardy Palm trees", Result:
"Cold Hardy Palm Trees
Are pink flamingoes still your idea of lawn and garden decor, even though Christmas is approaching? If so, then let's face it: winter landscape design is just not your cup of tea. You'd prefer a tropical landscape design -- you just don't happen to live in the tropics. But don't let that stop you. Cold hardy palm trees do exist. In fact, The Hardiest Palms, a Web site dedicated exclusively to disseminating information on cold hardy palm trees, notes that one species of palm tree has withstood temperatures as low as -20°F!"

In the Kansas City area, the local news had a story about
the renting of palm trees.
You can rent the trees from Feb thru Sept or Oct for $400.
The company cares for the trees during your rental.
Then they come a take the tree back to their huge greenhouse for the winter.

This is an interesting question for me. I also live in Fl. and have never heard of cold weather palms. I'm glad to know there are. I'm moving to Va.next month and I hate the thought of loosing all my plants due to the cold. Mostly my 75 orchids. I can't answer your question but will look forward to the best answer. Good luck

What you could do is check your local Lowes We sell Palm trees in our nursury section but the thing is being they are a trpoical plant you have to keep them out of certain weather like cold weather bring them in to the house during the cold season and make sure they get enough water. the little card that usually comes with the plant tells you some tips on how to take care of them.

an arborescent monocot such as a palm may be hard to grow in Missouri, I could be (and probably am) wrong. However, when and if you select a palm tree, keep in mind that a palm will reach its maximum trunk diameter before any height will develop on it. therefore, buy one based on height, not diameter as with trees.

I don't think there is a palm that will grow in a Missouri winter. You might try an indoor variety.

I'm in Florida, I don't know of any palms that can survive in freezing weather, UNLESS you place it in an large pot with saucer and bring it inside in the winter. Anything below 38 will hurt it. They do well in pots inside, just keep away from direct heat and mist them and fertilize them.
