Sabal brazoriensis, also known as Sabal × brazoriensis, the Brazoria palmetto, or Brazoria palm is a species of palm tree endemic to the Texas Gulf Coast in the United States.
This species is endemic to wet subtropical riparian forests in coastal southeastern Texas (almost entirely in Brazoria County), often referred to as the Colombia Bottomlands. The bulk of this ecosystem is housed in the San Barnard National Wildlife Refuge and is characterized by brackish and freshwater wetlands as well as forests adjacent to the Brazos and San Bernard rivers. Other trees that occur in this ecosystem include Quercus virginiana (southern live oak), Q. nigra (water oak), Fraxinus pennsylvanica (Green ash), Ulmus sp. (elms). and Ilex sp. (holly).
