Pygmy Date Palm Tree
Sculptural Patio Palm The Pygmy Date Palm, also known as the Robellini, has a uniquely sculptural look with full fronds and thick trunks. It is a short, stubby palm with green feathery fronds that makes a striking specimen or accent wherever it is placed. This Southeast Asia native grows to a maximum size of 6-12 feet tall and a spread of 6 to 10 feet. The gracefully curving green feathery fronds grow 3 to 4 feet long forming a dense evergreen canopy. Even the brown trunk is quite showy, highlighted with old frond scars. Pygmy Date palms usually come in a pot as a set of three stems. Although each stem is an individual plant, they are commonly planted in the same pot as a group of three to appear even fuller. The Pygmy Date Palm is beautiful as a Patio or Indoor palm, it thrives magnificently when planted in a container or pot. While tropical plants are typically restricted to warmer climates, their adaptability to container growth means you can bring these exotic beauties indoors
