    Palm Evaluation Study at the Mountain Research and Education Center, Blairsville, GA

    Palm Evaluation Study at the Mountain Research and Education Center, Blairsville, GA Gary L. Wade Department of Horticulture – Athens University of Georgia Most people associate palms with Florida and tropical islands and can not imagine them growing in Blairsville, Georgia, hardiness zone 6b. It’s unlikely we ever will be able to grow Miami’s Coconut Palms or Orlando’s Queen Palms in Georgia, but there are a number of species known to survive sub-freezing temperatures with little or no damage, thereby making them possible candidates for landscapes throughout Georgia as well as states to the north. Several of these palms are the basis for this study, which is being done in cooperation with the Southeastern Palm Society. Four replicates of eight palm species or cultivars were planted at the Mountain Research and Education Center on June 17, 2005. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the cold hardiness and adaptability of these palms to hardiness zone 6b. Growth measurements and winter injury will be documented over a 5-year period. Palms are reportedly most sensitive to cold injury while they are getting established, and they show increased cold hardiness as they mature. Therefore, winter protection will be provided during the first winter after planting. This will be accomplished by placing a hog-wire hoop over each plant and adding dry pine straw to a depth to cover the center spear (the most cold sensitive part of a palm). A few of the uppermost leaves will be left uncovered so that some photosynthesis can occur. The top and sides of the wire hoop will be covered with 3-mil clear plastic to shield the plants from cold winter winds.

    Care Sheet for Sabal minor or “Dwarf Palmetto” in Virginia Landscapes Fact and Care Sheet for Virginia Gardens John A. Saia, President, The Virginia Palm Society Joseph W. Seamone, Maryland horticulturist, McFall & Berry Landscape Management, Brookeville, MD Susanne E. Zilberfarb, Virginia Cooperative Extension Master Gardener, Fairfax County, VA Reviewed by Holly Scoggins, Associate Professor, Department of Horticulture, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA Introduction Native to the Southern United States, the Sabal minor or Dwarf Palmetto is a smaller and much shorter cousin to the familiar Sabal palmetto that lines the streets and palisades of cities in the Deep South, where the fronds were once cut to make ladies’ hand fans. Part of the Dwarf Palmetto’s native range includes the extreme southeastern portion of Virginia. As a result, S. minor is one of the most cold-hardy palms that can be grown in the Commonwealth of Virginia. S. minor features evergreen, deep blue-green fanlike fronds of one to three feet in length, depending on the age of the plant. A shrubby, clumping palm, it may form short trunks of one to three feet after many years of growth. At maturity,S. minor can range from six to eight feet tall and wide. Many specimens have endured Zone 7 and lower winter temperatures and being covered in thick ice and deep snow with little or no damage. Given the proper conditions and period of establishment, S. minor should be hardy throughout all Virginia zones.

    Northern Yellow Bat Roost Selection and Fidelity in South Carolina

    Final Report South Carolina State Wildlife Grant SC T-F16AF00598 South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR) May 1, 2016-June 30, 2017 Project Title: Northern Yellow Bat Roost Selection and Fidelity in South Carolina Mary Socci, Palmetto Bluff Conservancy (PBC), Jay Walea, PBC, Timothy White, PBC, Jason Robinson, Biological Systems Consultants, Inc., and Jennifer Kindel, SCDNR Objective 1: Radio-track healthy Northern yellow bats (≤ 10) captured by mist netting appropriate habitat in spring, summer, and fall 2016, ideally with at least 3 radio-tracking events in each season. Record roost switching, and describe roost sites selected. Accomplishments: Introduction: The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the roost site selection and fidelity of northern yellow bats (Lasiurus intermedius, syn. Dasypterus intermedius) by capturing, radio- tagging and tracking individual L. intermedius at Palmetto Bluff, a 15,000 acre, partially-developed tract in Beaufort County, South Carolina (Figures 1 and 2). Other objectives (2 and 3) were to obtain audio recordings of bats foraging in various habitats across the Palmetto Bluff property, including as many L. intermedius as possible and to initiate a public outreach program in order to educate the community on both the project and the environmental needs of bats, many of which are swiftly declining species in United States. Figure 1. Location of Palmetto Bluff 1 Figure 2. The Palmetto Bluff Development Tract The life history of northern yellow bats, a high-priority species in the Southeast, is poorly understood. Studies in coastal Georgia found that all yellow bats that were tracked roosted in Spanish moss in southern live oaks (Quercus virginiana) and sand live oaks (Quercus geminata) (Coleman et al.

    Sabal Minor (Arecaceae): a New Northern Record of Palms in Eastern North America

    CASTANEA 71(2): 172–177. JUNE 2006 Sabal minor (Arecaceae): a New Northern Record of Palms in Eastern North America ERIN A. TRIPP and KYLE G. DEXTER* Duke University, Department of Biology, Science Drive, Durham, North Carolina 27708-0338 ABSTRACT We report a new Sabal minor county record for North Carolina that represents the furthest known northern population of the largely tropical family Arecaceae in eastern North America. We give a brief introduction to Sabal and explain why this S. minor population may represent a northward range expan- sion in response to climate warming in northeast North Carolina. Finally, we discuss the usefulness of both historical herbarium specimens and modern day botanical collections to research on climate change and plant population responses. INTRODUCTION The genus Sabal Adans. (Arecaceae) comprises 16 species distributed along the coastal plains of the southeastern United States, eastern and western mainland Mexico, northwestern South America, and a number of Caribbean islands (Zona 1990). Sabal minor (Jacq.) Pers., known commonly as the dwarf or swamp palmetto, is native to the southeastern United States (North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas). A disjunct population was discovered by Goldman (1999) in the Sierra Madre Oriental, west of Linares in Nuevo Leo´n, Mexico. It is the southernmost population of this species and likely represents a previously undiscovered or unrecognized population (Goldman 1999; D. Goldman, pers. comm.). Other extant Sabal species native to the continental United States include S. etonia Swingle ex Nash (Florida), S. mexicana Mart. (Texas and Louisiana), and S. palmetto (Walt.) Lodd.

HABITAT RELATIONSHIPS OF BAT SPEICIES OF CONSERVATION CONCERN IN COASTAL SOUTH CAROLINA A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Wildlife and Fisheries Biology by Kyle Shute August 2020 Accepted by: David S. Jachowski, Committee Chair Susan C. Loeb Catherine B. Jachowski ABSTRACT Loss of forest habitat used for roosting and nocturnal activity by bats is a conservation concern in the southeastern United States. The northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis), southeastern myotis (Myotis austroriparius), tri-colored bat (Perimyotis subflavus), and northern yellow bat (Lasiurus intermedius) all occur within the Coastal Plain of South Carolina, where their greatest conservation threat is loss of critical roosting and foraging habitats. However, little research has been conducted on these species of conservation concern in this region, leaving gaps in information about habitat associations that would inform conservation and management as forest loss continues due to logging, agriculture, urban development, and intense storm events.

    Sabal Palmetto (Cabbage Palm) Cabbage Palm Can Reach up to 20 M High

    Sabal palmetto (Cabbage palm) Cabbage palm can reach up to 20 m high. It has a rough, fibrous trunk that is quite variable in shape, from straight and erect. This palm is topped with a very dense, round crown of deeply cut, curved, palmate leaves. The flowers are creamy white very showy that become green to black fruits during summer. It is a very salt tolerant palm and tolerates any light and soil condition. It could be used as a specimen, or as a street tree since it is tolernat to urban conditions.
