Also known as the Windmill Palm or Chusan Palm, Trachycarpus fortunei is evergreen and one of the hardiest palm trees you can grow, easily surviving colder conditions than -10ºC! It is ideal for growing in the variable British climate!
This is your opportunity to get your hands on one of the hardiest palms that we have, with deep green, tough, fan-shaped leaves that produce wonderful shadows on the patio or lawn when mature, this exotic beauty will be a brilliant centrepiece wherever you decide to plant it, bringing an exciting feel of the tropics to your garden.
As well as being suitable for planting directly into your garden in a warm, sunny spot, Trachycarpus is ideal for a large patio pot as it's compact and slow growing. This means that you can enjoy it regardless of the size of your garden, and if you move, you simply take it with you without worrying about losing your investment.
Winner of a prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be guaranteed that this is a garden-worthy plant that has been trialled and tested for its suitability to grow in UK gardens.
Supplied as an established potted plant, approx. 60-80cm tall (including pot), Trachycarpus will grow up to 10cm a year, ultimately reaching a height of 10m with a spread of around 1.5m.
