Why Contractors Come to Gulfroot
Bismarckia nobilis is rarely stocked by SWFL distributors. The slow propagation cycle keeps local supply thin. Most landscape contractors have to wait weeks or source out of state. We pull direct from Homestead growers who specialize in rare palms.
SWFL Field Performance
Performs well in SWFL zones 10–11. Full sun. Low water once established. Silver form (most common in trade) is cold-hardy to approximately 25°F. Avoid overwatering during establishment — well-draining soil essential.
Direct from Homestead — not through a distributor.
