Phoenix Roebelinii
Pygmy Date Palm

Known for its compact size and graceful, arching fronds, this small palm is a stunning accent in a landscape plan.  The trunk may be straight or boast bends that give an individual character.  The Roebelenii is often seen with interesting double or triple fused trunks.  This palm typically grows to a height of 6 to 10 feet, making it a perfect accent plant or a striking addition to tight spaces. Its feathery fronds, which can reach up to 4 feet in length, give it a delicate, tropical appearance that complements a variety of landscaping styles, from modern minimalism to lush, tropical designs.

Native to Southeast Asia, the Pygmy Date Palm thrives in warm, sunny conditions and is known for its resilience. Reasonably cold-hardy, it’s a low-maintenance palm that can tolerate a range of soil types.  With its elegant posture and manageable size, the Pygmy Date Palm is a wonderful choice for homeowners looking to create a tropical feel without overwhelming their space.
