1000 Live Canary Island Date Palm Tree Seedlings 1000

Phoenix canariensis

Canary Island Date Palm

Natural Habitat:  Canary Islands

Description: The Canary Island Date Palm is a massive tall palm that can reach over 60 feet in height and have a trunk thinker then bridge supports.  The massive trunk gives way to a large non-self cleaning crownshaft that can be 10 feet in height and form a massive ball on the top of the tree.  Since the tree is non-self cleaning the ball that form on the top of the tree is usually man-made, but still quite impressive.  The leaves are a light green, stiff and mostly pinnate along the branches, with long dangerous spines in-between them.

Environment:  This palm enjoys a sunny moist, but well drained area.  It is very cold hardy as an adult, and can take temps down into the 20’s, including frosts, with no visible damage.  As an adult tree it can be drought tolerant, but as a seedling we suggest keeping the soils moist.

Seedlings:  The seedlings are currently growing in a community bin.  They range anywhere from 8-10 inches tall with one single leaf.  They have healthy developing root systems that want to be planted in tree liners, 4”pots, or one gallon pots.  The seedlings do not like to be over watered, and should be planted at their bases (where the roots start, no deeper)
