The Sabal Palms are native palm trees to South Texas. Everywhere you turn you will see or find one. It is a representation of the RGV. With so many around everywhere, you may grow tired of them. But no matter how tired we may get of seeing Sabal Palm after Sabal Palm, we always greet them with a smile from a long trip as we drive home. Once you see the Sabal Palms along the highway, you know you are home in the RGV.
When we visited the Sabal Palm Sactuary, I was amazed to see so many Sabal Palms in one general area. I see them all over the RGV but this was amazing to see them in a grove. Learning that they are the only native palm tree in the RGV, and that there once were sabal palm groves along the gulf up to 8 miles inland has made me appreciate them.
