Canary Island Date Palm

The Canary Island Date Palm, also known as Phoenix canariensis, is a splendid addition to any landscape, offering a slice of tropical paradise. Originating from the Canary Islands, this palm is renowned for its robust trunk and beautiful, arching fronds that create a stunning, sculptural silhouette.

While young palms exhibit a more compact size, they can grow into majestic, towering palms with the right care and conditions. Ideal for creating a focal point in gardens, patios, or large indoor spaces, the Canary Island Date Palm thrives in full sunlight and requires well-drained soil to flourish.

Despite its tropical appearance, it is surprisingly hardy but should be protected from extreme cold. While generally low maintenance, it's important to note that the leaves can be sharp, and it's toxic to pets if ingested, so placement and care should be considered to ensure safety for all family members.
