European Fan Palm - Chamaerops humilis
Don't let the name put you off. You absolutely don't need to live in the south of France to grow this one. The European Fan Palm is the only palm native to Europe, and it's genuinely at home in UK gardens. Hardier than it looks, tolerant of wind, and even a degree of shade: a rarer combination than you'd expect in an ornamental palm.
Native to the western Mediterranean, including Spain, Morocco, and southern Italy, Chamaerops humilis slowly builds into a multi-stemmed clump of fan-shaped, blue-green leaves on spiny stems.
This plant is also known as the Dwarf Fan Palm and the Mediterranean Fan Palm.
Hardy to around -12°C once established, though younger plants benefit from a little fleece protection in their first winters. Plant in full sun or partial shade in well-drained soil. Water moderately through the growing season and feed monthly with a balanced fertiliser. In containers it's particularly happy as long as it doesn't sit in waterlogged compost.
Decorative pot not included.
