I have this beautiful palm growing in my front yard. It has babies galore! I'd like to know what type it is. Can anyone help me. I live in Myrtle Beach, SC
What kind of Palm Tree is this growing in my front yard
Might be Phoenix dactylifera, the Date Palm.
pino I think I have a few of them too
Definitely a Pindo. They're very common throughout central and coastal sc.
yep. butia capitata aka pindo or jelly palm. the fruits are edible when bright orange. i have heard they are delicious. as the name suggests, you can make jelly out of the fruits
I just moved to Panama City Beach, Florida - have two in my front yard - YES, the fruits are delicious!
Thank you. You have been very helpful. I have been able to start many new plants from this tree. It is beautiful and the babies seem to be doing well. Time will tell. I wondered about the fruit, if it was edible. This year, I cut it out b4 it had a chance to ripen, due to the bugs it attracted last year. Thanks again. I'm new at this. Still have a lot to learn.
