Canary Island Date Palm http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/738922/
I planted it in the middle of my new rose garden. LOL Little did I know that it will get about 40 ft tall and 4 ft around the trunk. Oh well, I love it and if it gets too big, I'll just move the roses. Plant files say zone 9a (which I just found out with the new zoning we are 9a) to 20 degrees. I also checked with LSU AG center which says the Canary Island Date Palm can take up to 15 degrees in our area.
