The award-winning Canary Island date palm (Phoenix canariensis) is the perfect way to add a tropical feel to your garden. This spectacular palm tree has huge arching feathery leaves that provide both structure and architectural interest, and makes a sensational focal point in a border or large container.

Canary Island date palms are very easy to grow and will even tolerate some neglect! They can reach a spread of 1.5m in a large pot or 3m if grown in the ground, so give them plenty of space to spread out.

How you will receive your plants:

Selected by our team of experts and sent from our nursery, you will receive your plant in a pot, ready to plant out.

Can’t plant straight away?

Place the pot in a sheltered spot outdoors and water regularly to keep the soil moist.

Planting tips and hints:

Planting in the ground:

Dig a hole slightly wider than the rootball of the plant. Place the plant in the hole so that it sits at the same level in the ground as it did in the pot. When backfilling, mix in a soil improver such as well-rotted farmyard manure. Firm the soil around the plant and water well.

Planting in containers:

Choose a pot with good drainage holes. Place stones or crocks (bits of broken pottery) at the bottom of the pot to stop the drainage holes clogging up. Use a good quality compost.

Feeding and aftercare: In very cold areas wrap fronds around crown to protect for winter, or move into a frost-free spot. Water container plants regularly and feed every 3 months from spring to autumn with diluted liquid feed. Cut off dead leaves. Take care when handling as the fronds have sharp spines – wear gloves and eye protection.
