Plant Description

The Phoenix roebelenii, commonly called the Pygmy Date Palm, is a petite, elegant palm known for its slender trunk and feathery, arching fronds that reach up to 1.2 meters (4 feet) in length. Its lush, dark green leaves have a graceful, cascading effect, and the palm's bark features a pattern of diamond-shaped scars from old leaves. While this slow-growing palm typically reaches heights of 2-3 meters (6-10 feet), it maintains a delicate, manageable size, making it a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor settings. Small creamy flowers may bloom in the warm months, followed by tiny black dates.
