Is there cold hardy palms in boston mass?

0

If there are, they are very rare. Even the most hardy species of palms (e.g. Needle Palm, Dwarf Sabal Palm) cannot grow in New England without artificial heating, wrapping, etc. Boston is a chilly zone 6 climate with a cool summer. The farthest north the hardiest palms can grow without extensive protection is the New York tri-state area; specifically coastal southern Connecticut. Outside of coastal Connecticut, to the north in New England, they are very difficult to grow. It is possible to have a Needle Palm survive there, but not without tons of effort, patience, and protection. A good tropicalesque alternative would be an interesting yucca specimen or even a perennial Musa basjoo banana clump.
