Phoenix canariensis

Phoenix canariensis, commonly known as the Canary Island Date Palm, is a striking evergreen palm prized for its grand stature and tropical appearance. With its arching, feathery fronds and thick trunk, it creates a dramatic focal point in exotic gardens, driveways, and commercial landscapes. It can reach an ultimate height of 10–20 metres, making it one of the most impressive palms for UK gardens.

Thriving in well-drained soils, including loam, sand, and chalk, Phoenix canariensis flourishes in full sun and is highly tolerant of coastal winds and urban pollution. Its drought-resistant nature makes it a low-maintenance yet visually striking choice for Mediterranean-style and tropical-themed landscapes.

This versatile palm is perfect for large container planting, architectural displays, and avenues. Its bold, structural form provides year-round interest and an exotic touch to both residential and commercial outdoor spaces.
