Trachycarpus wagnerianus
Miniature Chusan Palm tree – Windmill Palm
Description
Trachycarpus wagnerianus, often called Wagner's Chusan Palm or Windmill Palm, is a cold-hardy palm tree known for its ability to withstand cooler climates. It originates from Japan and is prized for its compact size and attractive appearance. The palm features a slender trunk covered in fibrous brown material and fan-shaped leaves that are a deep green. The leaves are much stiffer and less prone to tearing in the wind than other windmill palms. Wagner's Chusan Palm is relatively slow-growing. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It is a popular choice for landscaping in temperate regions. Regular watering is beneficial, particularly during dry periods. Mulching around the base of the tree helps conserve moisture and protects the roots.
