Key Attributes
About European Fan, Palm Seed
Heat, drought and coastal conditions suit this tough, compact Mediterranean native, the European Fan Palm, one of the most cold-hardy palms you can grow. Chamaerops humilis forms a slow-growing clump of multiple trunks topped with stiff, fan-shaped leaves in shades of green to silvery blue-green. Its bushy, shrubby habit makes it perfect for containers, patios, rock gardens and low screens, and it stays manageable for years.
