Sabal 'Birmingham'
''Sabal'' 'Birmingham' is a seed-propagated selection of palmetto (Arecaceae, genus ''Sabal''), of unknown origin and widely thought to be a hybrid of Sabal palmetto with a yet-unidentified species. It is widely known for its extreme cold hardiness and its slow growth compared to other palmetto species.
==History==
The origin of ''Sabal'' 'Birmingham' is shrouded in mystery. The plant was first identified with a large palmetto that grew in the garden of Eva Alexander in Birmingham, Alabama (hence the name), which survived many freezes below , including at least one below . One even survived -11 degrees F in Tulsa, OK. Speculation indicates the seed source for this particular palm was somewhere in California. After Alexander's death in 1976, her property on Graymont Avenue was re-purposed for a church, and the tree was moved to the Birmingham Botanical Gardens.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.yuccado.com/sabal-sp-birmingham.html )〕 It remained there until it died in the mid 1980s. Before its demise, Bob McCartney of Woodlander's Nursery collected seed from the tree and began germinating seedlings, which have kept this particular species going. Specimens are now found as far away as Virginia, Maryland, and southern New Jersey.
