Trachycarpus Fortunei - 40 cm Hardy Windmill Palm
Bring the enduring charm of a resilient palm into your garden or landscape with the Trachycarpus Fortunei, also widely known as the Chinese Windmill Palm! This robust and elegant palm tree, measuring approximately 40 cm in height, is a fantastic choice for adding exotic flair even in cooler climates.
Distinctive Fan-Shaped Leaves & Robust Nature: The Trachycarpus Fortunei is easily recognizable by its distinctive, fan-shaped (palmate) leaves that form a lush, green canopy atop a single, fibrous trunk. The trunk is often covered in a hairy, dark brown material, giving it a unique texture and rustic appeal. This hardy palm's upright growth habit and classic silhouette make it a striking focal point in any garden setting.
Cold Hardy & Adaptable for Various Climates: One of the most appealing features of the Windmill Palm is its remarkable cold hardiness, allowing it to thrive in many regions where other palm trees would not survive. This makes it an excellent choice for temperate gardens, containers on patios, or even as an architectural statement near entrances.
Care Tips for Your Trachycarpus Fortunei:
- Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade. It thrives in bright conditions but can tolerate some shade, especially in hotter climates.
- Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to establish the plant. Once established, it is quite drought-tolerant but will appreciate consistent moisture during warm months. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
- Soil: Adapts to a variety of well-draining soils.
- Placement: Excellent for planting directly in the garden, in large pots on decks, or as a welcoming feature. Its hardy nature makes it a reliable addition to many outdoor spaces.
