No way is Trachycarpus martianus nearly as cold hardy as a Washingtonia... mine was defoliated completely this winter, and my neighbor's Washingtonias has no damage at all.  Rhapis humilis is probably less cold hardy, too, but not sure about that.  I seriously doubt Hyphaene petersiana is more cold hardy, either, but no personal experience with that one... the other Hyphaenes sure aren't.  To me, this is a very narrow zone, as I rarely see damage on Washingtonias without similar damage to P canariensis... I personally would rate them equal, with most of the plants listed here as being less hardy than either.

Seems odd to include Juania in a subtropical list as I know of no subtropical climate in which this species can be grown.. do you?[[User:Palmbob|Palmbob]] 16:53, 22 July 2007 (PDT)

Ranking is from more hardy to less hardy.
If a Butia odorata is hardy in your area, so is everything else on this page.

  • Sabal palmetto (11.2/-11.6)
  • Washingtonia filifera (12/-11.1)
  • Butia x Jubaea (13/-10.6)
  • Jubaea chilensis (13.5/-10.3)
  • Brahea armata (13.5/-10.3)
  • Butia capitata (14.3/-9.9)
