Palm trees possible in TN?

[CorCentral]

I've seen "HUGE" Magnolia Trees abound here in TN. Just curious if it's easy/cheap to plant a grown Palm Tree (minus plant cost) and have it survive 10+ years.

Yes I've seen huge Magnolia trees.

You might want to call someone in McMinville, Nursery Capital of the World.

Oh, you actually live in McMinnville (profile says Nashville). Or Mac Minnvul as the locals there call it. I used to have to go there a lot. See my profile.

Not unless you can erect a plastic/heated greenhouse over it in the winter - but then you have to worry about it's roots freezing it as they spread out.
