Phoenix theophrasti (Crete Date Palm)


Phoenix theophrasti (Crete Date Palm)
3 (6)m, Crete Date Palm is the only recently discovered endemic palm to this island, where it is extremely rare. Similar as Phoenix dactylifera, yet with a more massive, broader stem and a denser crown of leather like, dark green feathered leaves. The hardiest of all Phoenix palms. Might be worth a try for an open garden cultivation in a sunny spot in a well drained soil with good frost protection (e.g. insulating plastic foil) in winter. USDA Climate Zone 9.
The reg. price was € 3,29.
