About Phoenix canariensis
This species has large, feathery fronds that can grow up to 20 feet in length and are a bright green color with massive trunks up to 2 feet in diameter. It is highly prized for its ornamental value in landscaping and is often used as a street or park tree. The species is known for its ability to tolerate a wide range of growing conditions, making it a popular choice for landscaping in tropical and subtropical regions.
Cultivation Tips
Plant in in a nutrient-rich soil with good drainage. Place this palm in a location that receives bright indirect light during the day with morning or evening sun. Water sparingly when the soil starts to feel dry at the top. Palm trees don’t tolerate sitting in water and may experience root rot if the soil is left wet for too long. Feed once in mid-spring and again in early summer for best results.
