Phoenix canariensis: Characteristics and Care
The Phoenix canariensis, popularly known as the Canary Island Date Palm, is a large palm tree, endemic to the Canary Islands, which stands out for its robust trunk and its wide crown of pinnate, arched, and intense green leaves, making it one of the most emblematic palm trees of the Mediterranean landscape.
Its majestic stature and great longevity make it a highly valued option as a prominent specimen and for large-scale plantings.
It tolerates moderate drought well once established and adapts to different soil types, provided it has good drainage.
At Ornacom we cultivate each specimen directly, guaranteeing a balanced size and vigorous development from the first years of planting.
