Description

An instant holiday feel in your garden! This evergreen palm produces exceptionally long fan-like foliage for a fresh, yet dramatic display. The perfect architectural palm for instant impact, delivered to you at least 175cm tall, ready to dress up a large, decorative pot.

This fast-growing evergreen, also known as Washingtonia robusta, boasts superb leaves, each stretching up to 1.5m long! In summer, a scattering of small white flowers can be seen dangling on the branching stems.

Witness beautiful shadows on the lawn or patio as the fan leaves gently dance on the breeze across the warm summer months. The slender trunk of the tall plant swells towards the base with age, topped with a huge outstretching head of leaves.

This is not a hardy plant, therefore will need winter protection. Keep it potted and in a warm spot on the patio, balcony, or terrace during summer, before bringing it indoors from autumn, such as into a conservatory.

Supplied as an established plant in a 17L pot, at 175-200cm tall, ready to plant.

Top Tips
  • Water well in spring and summer - despite their tropical looks!
  • In windy spots, provide shelter, as they large leaves can be damaged in high winds
Care Information
  • Slow-growing trees, palms are easy to grow and care for. Thriving in a sheltered site in full sun, with some shade from direct midday sun, they are best grown on the patio in large pots and brought under cover into a protected area for winter.
  • During the growing season, water moderately and feed with a balanced fertiliser once a month at half the strength of the packet guidance. Water sparingly in winter.
  • If the plant becomes pot-bound, pot on into a container 2.5cm larger when new growth starts in spring, using a compost with good drainage properties.
  • In years when repotting is not carried out, topdress by removing 5cm of the old surface compost from the top of the pot and replace it with fresh compost.
  • Pruning will only be needed to remove old fronds that hang below the horizontal level. Do not remove any that are growing upright, as this may slow the growth and reduce the palm's overall vigor.
  • Remember these palms have spines and sharp edges - use extreme caution when handling.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
