Sabal Palmetto: The Florida State Tree

Sabal Palmetto: The Florida State Tree

In 1953, the Florida legislature determined the Sabal palmetto (or cabbage palm) to be the Florida state tree, and, by 1970, the sabal palm replaced the cocoa palm on our state seal. However, if you’re a stickler for details, it’s worth noting that our state tree isn’t a tree at all. The sabal palm is a grass.

Growing up to heights of 70 feet, the sabal palm has a single, unbranching trunk and a mighty crown of pointed fronds. The fronds grow from a single, tender bud, protected in the crisscross pattern of leaf boots that we typically see in the cabbage palm. This bud, or heart, is what gives the sabal palm its cabbage palm alias: Seminole Indians and Florida crackers harvested the bud and prepared it in a traditional dish similar to stewed cabbage with fatback, called swamp cabbage. Hearts of palm, often used in salads and easily acquired in cans at the grocery store, are commercial uses of the sabal palm. However, harvesting this bud kills the sabal palm, and many advocates for this tree advise against buying hearts of palm as they are usually taken from wild stands of palms in Central America and Mexico, where they are also native plants.

The boot, or the base of the frond still attached to the trunk, denotes a young sabal palm. When the tress are mature and their stem is thick enough, the boots disappear and the trunk smoothes out. In Florida lore, these frond base protrusions came to be known as boots by Spanish Conquistadors who used them in lieu of shoehorns or, as another story goes, the U.S. Army hung their boots on them during the Seminole Wars to keep snakes and other critters from crawling in their shoes at night.

The Seminole Indians have a unique relationship with the sabal palm, using all its parts for food and shelter. The fronds were harvested and secured as roofing material for Seminole chickees, and the fronds natural waterproofing proved a life-saver during the Florida wet season. The fibrous hairs between the boots and the trunk can be twisted together to make twine, and these hairs also make fantastic starter fuel for fires. Sabal palm trunks can be used as pilings, and their hearts and berries make meals for humans, birds and bears.

A fascinating, useful and surprisingly sturdy grass, the sabal palm deserves a lot of respect and honor as our state tree. Over the years, it has given us food and shelter, and today the sabal palm stands as a recognizable emblem for the beauty of wild Florida

Thank you for letting me know that my medication for my depression should address my unique needs. I’ve been on medication for years for my depression, but recently nothing has been helping. Thank you for letting me know that with new medication that typically I’ll see a 10-20 percent improvement each week as I a good medication for me. I will have to look more into different medications that could help me better.

I appreciate your comments on how depression can be manageable until it is causing weight loss, fatigue, or other more extreme problems that mean it could be a medical illness. I have always struggled with mild depression but have been experiencing some insomnia lately. I might need to look into some treatment methods to help with that.

Depression can be a very serious mental health issue. I think the first step is really understanding your symptoms and that you’re not alone. Cognitive behavioral therapy can be very useful in helping people become aware and change their negative thought patterns

Thank you for the information on the management of depression. I think one of the best ways to work through depression if possible is therapy. Sometimes you just need someone to talk to, someone who isn’t going to tell you that you are right or wrong they are just there to listen and offer advice. I will pass this on to a friend of mine who is going through a bit of a rough patch right now.

I have a yellow coconut in Brownsville, Texas. It was planted two years ago when it was about 5 inches tall, and it has never needed to be staked. This fall we had some nights near freezing. After a day of pre-cold front strong south wind, the palm is now a little loose in the ground. The lowest fronds are a deep yellow with brown around the edges, and some of the newer fronds are slightly yellowed at the leaf tips. A new spear is emerging fairly quickly. Should I do anything besides bracing the palm?

Hi, quite an educative post.

I saw them twice on my windows trying to gain entry into my parlor and I clean up my toilet /bathroom with hypochlorite solution,I told my husband to check the backyard to see if they are actually breeding there and coming out from there but he too is feeling irritated and said he can't go there, I'm confused as to what to do.

It sure got me when you said that rats are dangerous because they carry at least ten diseases, like the bubonic plague, ratbite fever, rabies, and Leptospirosis. Of these, my sisters are scared of the bubo the most since they read it in a history book, and they know the illness comes from rat fleas. That is why I will hire a rodent control expert to check the house soon. If they ever see the rats, it will be chaos.

I think the concern is that the Cuban tree frog population is taking over and killing off all the native Florida frogs.

This is just my experience and understanding, as I'm sure the experts in the field could better comment.

My dad is worried about the coming summer because his plants may not have enough water supply. It was discussed here that micro-irrigation is beneficial because it's efficient and nutrients are better timed for the needs of the plant. Furthermore, it's advisable to talk to agricultural suppliers about the center pivot for a quality irrigation system.

An IRA is a type of retirement plan that allows you to defer certain tax obligations until you start drawing money out of the plan upon retirement. The advantages of this are that you can allow money to grow tax-free, and in many cases you can manage your eventual withdrawals from the plan so they come at a time when you are in a lower tax bracket.

Great article. Thank you for including counselling as a suggested treatment. Too often this form of therapy if overlooked in favour of medication. As a Psychotherapist I have helped may patients with mental illness seeking treatment for depression. How Psychotherapy differs from medication is that it treats the cause rather than the symptom. A Psychotherapist uses the thoughts, images and feelings that pass through your mind, as well as your relationship with a person, to discover patterns that give clues about psychological conflicts of which you are not aware, especially issues that are related to experiences early in life such as during childhood. By making you aware of these 'unconscious' conflicts, you can deal with them and resolve issues that cause depressed moods.

I would like for you to consider the following. I have lived in Florida my whole life. The Cuban tree frog was always part of my environment and I am almost 60. I grew up mostly in Miami. I suspect but cannot confirm that they have been around for at least 100 yrs. at what point does a non native become native? When do we acknowledge the benefits of a species? What is said about the Cuban tree frog negativity can be said about our native frogs. They make noise, can disrupt electrical, pee on you etc. telling people to kill these useful creatures I believe is irresponsible. They eat an incredible amount of mosquitoes and other pests. I feel that with changing climates there will be a lot more migration and we should entertain the idea that this is natural. That a species that thrives in urban environments is a plus. Humans done more damage to native ecosystems than any exotic. Domestic pets like cats have all but decimated the sparrow population in south Florida. When I was a child they were everywhere. I don’t see anyone suggesting we euthanize cats or dogs. I think the old way of looks bf at exotic animals needs to be modernized to take into account human and climate changes. Leave the Cuban tree frog alone.

My Bismarck Palm was damaged during Hurricane Irma last year. The frond coming out of the heart at the time was blown over and turned brown. Many other fronds were damaged. There are still at least 6 fronds left on the tree that are green but no new fronds since the hurricane in Sept. 2017. If the damaged center frond remains on the tree hanging over and dead will new fronds grow from the center? How will I know when the Bismarck is dead? If all of the remaining fronds turn brown, should I assume the palm.is dead or should I give it more time? Would hate to see it go!! Thank you for the information.

The best way to prevent roaches from entering your home is to exclude them by sealing all cracks in your foundation, repairing all water leaks, keeping your house clean of crumbs, spills and clutter, and your trash and recycling receptacles sanitized. However, regular pest control from professionals like those at Hulett should also be considered to keep roaches away from your home and family.

Anyone who has ever made a meal probably knows the importance of herbs and spices. They add texture, flavor, aroma, color and are basically the soul of a dish. Herbs are not necessarily overpowering and strong and spices does not mean the food is hot or spicy. Both herbs and spices can be paired together to create a symphony of flavors. You need not be limited to conventional pairing, think beyond the salt shaker and cook with herbs and spices. It is easier to cook if you understand your ingredients and the subtle and sometime not so subtle difference between them.

Most common means of extermination professional pest controllers go with is spraying disinfectants and ultrasound systems, however, those are hardly effective for complete proofing of your property for any future potential rodent threats. I'd resort to more traditional measures of prevention, such as cleaning up all the clutter and debris you have both in your house and garden/yard. Any object that is lying around can potentially turn into a haven for rats or mice, such as newspapers, bottles, boards, anything. And when it comes to the garden, my personal best tip I've learned through lots of trying is to avoid mulching. I know it's a very good method to keep plants warm but I found rodents really like to use it for nesting.

Hi there, Great tips by the way and thank you. I did have a question though. I'm hoping you can answer it for me since you seem to be pretty knowledgeable about gardening. Is it safe to pour blended food waste (vegetable leftovers, bones) directly on growing vegetables? If you had some insight I would greatly appreciate it.

I didn't realize that there were irrigation systems that actually are placed below the soil surface in order to water the plants. This seems like it would be great because there wouldn't be any lost water to the air, it would be injected directly near the roots of your plants. My husband has been looking for something to put in our flower garden to help them get watered better so I'll have to see if he has considered this kind of system. I think that it would work great!

Millennials have many challenges that they need to overcome, and student loan debt is one of them. The total amount of student loan debt has doubled in just seven years, digging a deeper hole for millennials compared to previous generations. Another challenge millennials face is the competitive job market and wages increasing at a slower rate. Because of this, it’s especially important that young adults be smarter with their money ando learn to live within their means.

According to the expert: To some people, petioles are stems. In this case, the leaves can simply be cut off near their origin. If a true stem or trunk is broken, it should be cut as low as possible to the ground. If the fishtail palm is a single-stemmed species (not common in FL), then make sure that they also have the stump ground out after cutting the stem off. This is to prevent ganoderma from moving in on the stump and from there it could move into living palms. That holds for the removal of any palm for any reason. Unfortunately, we can't grind out the individual stubs of clustering palm species that may have been cut out and thus, ganoderma often invades the clump via these stubs and eventually kills off the living stems.

Your palm can be straightened and guyed securely to prevent movement. This will allow new roots from the base of the trunk to eventually (about a year or so) support the palm .
