"It is He Who sends down water from the sky from which We bring forth growth of every kind, and from that We bring forth the green shoots and from them We bring forth close-packed seeds, and from the spathes of the date palm date clusters hanging down, and gardens of grapes and olives and pomegranates, both similar and dissimilar. Look at their fruits as they bear fruit and ripen. There are Signs in that for people who believe"
Pindos grow very slowly. There is one here in New Orleans with about a 20' trunk that is 49 years old, which I know b/c I asked the woman who has lived in that house her whole life. They are hardy down to about 10º F, or even slightly lower. (It is the cold-hardiest feather-leaved palm on earth). But no palm will grow in NE Illinois.
The tree shown at 0:55-1:00 is a Phoenix canariensis (Canary Island Date Palm).

Some people are growing Windmill Palms in the Chicago area and places in Michigan and Ohio. They must be properly sheltered for winter though.
