PALMS 
Nothing makes our Southern towns more invitingly tropical, especially in the eyes 
of our Northern visitors, than the Palms, at home in our mild climate. 
Lofty Palms lining an avenue suggest stability and dignity. A careless grouping 
of Palms and other evergreens makes an effect of luxuriance that nothing else can 
create. 
Pindo Palm (Cocos australis) Very hardy, 
Silvery gray foliage 
Pindo Cocos australis 
20 ft. T2. Very hardy. Silvery-gray leaves with 
pronounced curve. Delicious fruit. 
Very graceful, with upright recurving leaves, 
resembling the Canariensis or Date Palm leaves. 
Foliage is of an impressive gray green; fruit edible; 
erect columnar trunk. A great deal hardier than 
the Phoenix and Washington and can therefore 
be planted farther North than any outdoor variety.
