Phoenix Palm
(Pygmy Date Palm)
Phoenix robelenii
Medium light plant.
This is a miniature date palm and usually grows to only 2 to 3 feet
tall.
It has an airy, tropical delicate look, and comes with 1, 2 or 3
trunks per plant. The almost grass-like fronds surround a very
thick trunk to make a completely round shape. This plant prefers higher humidity and good
fresh air circulation.
Slow-growing, sturdy, takes abuse and neglect better than most.
This is one of
the best palms for removing indoor air pollutants,
especially xylene. |
