Default Hey Surf City Palms

I live in Charleston SC and wanted to know if you think the variegated blood banana or the umbrella palm would be able to survive near here. I live by the coast or beach line so we occasionally get some salt spray especially if there's a tropical storm or hurricane running about. If they can survive, I have a couple of baby windmill palms I can trade you.

What is your USDA zone? I'm not to sure if the Umbrella palm will but I would think the banana will because they are very hardy. The banana is currently in a 1g pot and is about 6-8 inches tall.

I have several types of seedlings and seeds for trade:

Sabal Palmetto (about 1 year old, 3 leaves on each)
Trachycarpus Fortunei (about 1 year old, 4-5 leaves on each)
Figi Palm (picked up the seeds in September, now germinating and pushing their first leaf out)
Triangle Palm (also just germinating from seeds picked up in September)
Dwarf Date Palm (a few months since germinating, 2 leaves per seedling)

I also have more seeds for the Figi Palm, Triangle Palm, and Trachycarpus Fortunei (the Trachys are about 1 year old, but still germinating well).

I'm interested in varieties that I'm not currently trying to grow and with some degree of hardiness, to include the Purple King Palm.

I just got the palms today, awesome! I just want to let you know, the soil you packed they in is perfect for getminating. with that quality of soild, all you have to do it put in the seeds and keep them about 90 degrees, the presto, you have seedlings!
