Description

Eurpean Fan Palm is a beautiful plant, and it grows into a nice shrubby form. If pruned (suckers removed), it will grow into a single trunk tree form (similar form to a palm tree). It makes a nice barrier or group accent at the corner of the landscape. Use in containers for patio, deck or foundation areas. It may even be grown indoors as a houseplant. It is one of the most cold-hardy palms. It is a shrub-like, clumping palm with several stems growing from a single base. Other forms for this plant are irregular and bushy. It is easily grown in rich, moist, well-drained soils and prefers a bright sunny location (but tolerates partial shade). It loses its compact shape if it has too much shade. The best growth occurs in Mediterranean-type climates. Care And Nurture Sunlight
