Abstract
The pindo or jelly palm is a small, single-stemmed, feather-leaved palm widely grown in warmer parts of the US due to its unusual cold tolerance. It is considered hardy down to about 10°F (USDA zone 8A). The palm is slow-growing, eventually reaching 15 to 20 feet, making it suitable for planting under power lines. This revised 2-page fact sheet was written by Timothy K. Broschat and published by the UF Department of Environmental Horticulture, April 2015.
