Yes! Several palm species are cold hardy enough to thrive in North Carolina’s climate zones (7b and 8a). We specialize in cold hardy palm installation and maintain our own palm growing operation. Species such as Windmill Palm (Trachycarpus fortunei) and Needle Palm (Rhapidophyllum hystrix) can withstand Triangle-area winters. Our Cold Hardy Palm Oasis project gallery showcases successful palm installations throughout the region.

We maintain a catalog of over 80 plant varieties organized into several categories: shade trees, ornamental and flowering trees (including crape myrtles, Southern magnolias, camellias, and dogwoods), hollies, coniferous evergreens (including Green Giants, Cryptomeria, cedars, spruce, Emerald Green arborvitae, and Eastern white pine), Japanese maples, cold hardy palms, and mature bamboo.
