Provide Shade

If you envision yourself underneath the cooling fronds of a shady palm, most likely you are thinking of a backyard or front porch variety shielding a favorite spot. Numerous varieties are available for protection on hot, sunny days including the Ruffled Fan, Parlor Palm, Royal, and Coconut Palm. Each offers its own unique and attractive leaf pattern, yet designed with one task in mind – keeping you cool!

Tolerate Drought

Drought tolerant palms may not be anything new to you, but there are specific varieties that thrive best in drier climates. If you’re looking to conserve water, then you want to consider the drought-resistant Bottle Palm, Date Palm, and the Saw Palmetto. While these varieties survive with minimal moisture, they do require little water.

Frame a Driveway

Certain majestic palm trees can line a driveway as well as any towering oak. If you want a regal lineup of palms, then you want to select a feather or fan leaf variety that grows tall such as a Royal or King palms. To ensure you get the ideal height and width, these palms need to be planted at the appropriate distance from each other, so they have room to grow.
