Chamaerops Humilis: The Hardy Mediterranean Palm

Chamaerops humilis, commonly known as the European Fan Palm, is a resilient and attractive palm species ideal for adding a touch of the Mediterranean to any landscape. Typically growing to heights of 5 to 10 feet, this compact palm features a clumping growth habit with a cluster of sturdy, fan-shaped leaves.

The leaves, which radiate from a central trunk, are deeply cut and provide a lush, tropical appearance. Chamaerops humilis is valued for its ability to withstand a range of soil types and climates, including cooler temperatures, making it a versatile choice for gardens, patios, and landscape design.
