Visit Palmco’s farm and palm tree nursery in Bokeelia on Pine Island to see how we can help.
Miramar is in USDA Hardiness Zone 10b.
The ample rainfall, high humidity and 250 average warm days per year are comparable to a semi-tropical climate. Wintertime is mild to warm throughout Broward County, with lows ranging from about 25° F to 40° F. The highest rainfall occurs in the summer months.
Of course, using the USDA maps will only tell you where a plant should survive the winter. There are a variety of other factors that will influence the ideal palm trees for your unique climate.
Even within two or three feet, a microclimate may cause a small area to be warmer or colder, wetter or drier, or more or less prone to frosts than the area around it. It’s important to work with a reputable nursery to be sure the palms you choose will flourish in your environment.
