On the left we have the famed Sabal minor 'McCurtain'; on the right, a regular Sabal minor. This winter will be the first test for these plants. Both are planted about 6" off the south foundation in a cold northern zone 4b/5a location. They will be given the same protection (likely mulch and a leaf wrap) then left to fend for themselves. Does McCurtain deserve its reputation as the hardiest form of minor? Does it truly grow faster? Only time will tell!
Here is the picture of the newly plant 3 gallon minors:
