B. odorata is notable as one of the hardiest feather palms, tolerating temperatures down to about ; it is widely cultivated in warm temperate regions. It is commonly grown on the East Coast of the United States as far north as Virginia Beach, Virginia and Portland and Seattle on the West coast. It thrives in humid subtropical climates. This tree is commonly known as the "jelly palm" because of the sticky, edible, date-like fruit it produces, which is used in many South American countries to make jelly. Butia eriospatha - Woolly Jelly Palm - Though it maybe more cold tolerant, in N. America it is not found in cultivation as much as B. ordorata. This maybe due to being native to a remote mountainous region of Southern Brazil, at altitudes of . The weather is more similar to N. America's Pacific Northwest, with wet winters and cool summer days. Chamaedorea microspadix and Chamaedorea radicalis – the hardiest known species in the genus Chamaedorea. Both species come from Mexico and are considered stem hardy to about , although they will lose their leaves at temperatures below about . Canary Island Date Palm (Phoenix canariensis) – This species is hardy to about , and is grown as far north as the south of England (50°N), producing viable seed (in Southsea, Hampshire). In North America mature specimens can be found as far north as Gold Beach, Oregon (42.5º N) on the West Coast, and Wilmington, North Carolina (35.2 N) on the East Coast. This palm is one of the most commonly grown palms in the world. Well adapted to low humidity and little watering, this palm is used as an ornamental in both Mediterranean climates and desert climates. In more humid climates, these trees will often be seen with sword ferns sprouting just beneath the crown. Cretan Date Palm (Phoenix theophrasti) – Another species of Phoenix which shows similar frost tolerance, or it may be even hardier. Native to Crete
