It is prized for its gracefully arching feather-like leaves and attractive blue-gray to silvery foliage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNative to southern Brazil and Uruguay, Butia odorata develops a solitary, sturdy trunk topped by a dense crown of strongly recurving pinnate leaves. Blue selections are particularly sought after by palm collectors and landscape growers for their pronounced cool-toned foliage and architectural appearance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eButia odorata is also notable for being one of the more cold-hardy feather palms. Established plants are generally considered hardy to approximately 10°F under suitable conditions, making the species useful well beyond strictly tropical climates.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMature palms produce clusters of yellow to orange fruit, giving rise to the common name Jelly Palm. The combination of blue-gray foliage, relatively compact mature size, cold tolerance, and drought tolerance once established makes this an especially versatile ornamental palm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBecause these are seed-grown plants from blue-form parent material, individual seedlings may naturally vary in foliage color and intensity.
