Olive & Palm Mountain
Pygmy Date Palms (Phoenix roebelenii)
The Phoenix roebelenii is an exquisite, compact palm that brings a soft, graceful tropical aesthetic to any space. With its fine, feathery, arching fronds and slender, often slightly curved trunk, it creates a delicate, elegant silhouette that contrasts beautifully with larger, bolder architectural plants. Because of its smaller stature and slow growth rate, it is the perfect "boutique" palm—ideally suited for large containers, conservatories, or as an elegant accent on a sheltered, sunny terrace.

- Size (H × W)
- 115 x 150 cm
- Sunlight
- Full Sun to Partial Shade. It thrives in bright, filtered light. While it can handle full sun, particularly in cooler UK summers, it often appreciates a little dappled shade during the hottest part of the day to prevent leaf scorch.
- Watering
- Moderate. Keep the soil consistently moist during the active growing season, but never waterlogged. It enjoys higher humidity than many other palms, so regular misting of the fronds is appreciated if kept in an indoor or conservatory environment. Reduce watering significantly during the winter months.
- Soil & Drainage
- Requires a rich, free-draining, loam-based potting compost. As with all palms, ensure the container has excellent drainage and is raised on feet to prevent the roots from sitting in stagnant water.
