Yes, I've found that it is the one with the least damage through winter... and it grows fast compared to my normal T. fortunei palms. I searched for Naini Tal and my palm DOES match the "droopy leaf tips" described on the Naini Tal... so, even if it is, I am still happy with it and would recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, hardy palm tree.
