This exotic palm is sure to turn your garden in to a tropical paradise for years to come!
Tough and architectural, these palms will make a striking addition to any garden, with their spiky foliage creating vivid, dancing shadows in the summer sun.
With large, deeply ridged, fan-shaped leaves that will spread luxuriously out above the stout trunk, forming an impressive canopy of bright green foliage. Commonly called Cotton Palms because of their wisps of ‘cotton’ like strands that fall from each leaf, they provide a wonderful spectacle in any setting.
Growing as tall as you let them, these stunning palms are perfect as a centrepiece, or to add height to borders. They’ll also look great in a large pot on your patio. Semi-hardy down to -5?C, so provide winter protection or move potted palms to shelter.
Supplied as an established 50-60cm tall plant in a 14cm pot. Plants will ultimately reach around 2m x 1.5m.
Care Information
- Slowly growing trees, palms are easy to grow and care for.
- Thriving in a sheltered site in full sun, with some shade at midday palms are best grown on the patio in a large pot and brought under cover in the winter.
- When in growth, watering moderately and feed with a balanced fertiliser once a month at half strength.
Water sparingly in winter. - If the plant becomes pot bound, pot on into containers 2.5cm (1 inch) larger when new growth starts in spring, using a compost with good drainage.
- In years when re-potting is not carried out, topdress by removing 5cm (2in) of old compost from the top of the pot and replacing with fresh.
- Pruning will only be needed to remove old fronds, which hang below horizontal.
- Do not remove those growing upright since this may slow the growth and reduce the palm vigor.
- Remember to handle palms with care.
- Semi-hardy down to -5?C, so provide winter protection or move potted palms to shelter.
