Sago Palm Tree
 The Sago Palm Tree is slow growing, but large specimens of Sago trees towering to 12 feet grow at Christ's Church on St. Simon's Island, GA., were brought from England by John and Charles Wesley in 1737, the founders of the Methodist Church in the U.S. |
 A new growth flush of leaves suddenly appears in May, circular in arrangement with a yellow-green look, but the Sago Palm leaves will rapidly elongate and darken with a rich green sheen. |

 Sago (Featherleaf) Palm Tree, Dwarf Sago Palm Plants can be containerized, and planted outside in urban locations to give a unique look. |
 Large Sago Palm Trees survived the zero degree temperatures in the deep freeze of 1983, however, new growth did not appear for 7 months later. |
 Sago Palm Trees can form clusters of offspring at the base of the palm tree or the small sago offsets can grow sideways out of a mature trunk, or seed from female sago palm trees can easily germinate to grow into small, slow growing sago plants. |
 The palm leaves of the Sago Palm, Cycas revoluta, are often used to decorate churches during Easter celebrations. |
 Because this beautiful palm-like plant is somewhat cold tolerant, it is widely used as a landscape plant in the South and easily containerized in the North. |
 The male Sago Featherleaf Palm Tree pollinates the female Sago Featherleaf Palm Tree. |
 Palm-like leaves of the Sago Palm Tree are damaged by frosts and temperatures below 25 degrees F., but they may not turn yellow or brown for several weeks after the cold snap. |
 The Sago Palm Tree is not considered to be a palm tree by botanists, but is an ancient cycad, a prehistoric relic of many desert palms. |
