Date palms!



Phoenix Dactylifera or Date palms are one of the most well known and sought after palm trees, not only for their dates but for their look as well. Your probably used to seeing the "dates" in the stores that are sweet and tasty, along with date shakes!! Date palms are very adaptable to different growing conditions, from hot, dry desserts, to wet tropics, to cold temperature regions. The Date Palm only produces edible dates in extreme hot environments. These palms also have a high salt tolerance making them an excellent choice for coastal planting as well.

These palms are usually planted in specimen sizes for an instant centerpiece, lining shopping center streets and courtyards, hotel entrances, house landscape and more. These are more affordable than that of the Canary Island date palms as well.

The date palms have a blue-ish hue to the leaves and have a woodsy dark diamond cut trunk.

Check them out today and give us a call to pick our your date palms!

New Home In Irvine Gets a Refreshing Look! Gregory Palm Farms (714) 814-8525/760)975-4605 come on down open daily

HI!

With a new home, landscape is so important. Your landscape can look like it will take a LONG time to grow....
or your landscape can grow old with you in your new home.


Mature palm trees are more expensive but the trade off is immediate. Your property value goes up, your shade goes up, your oxygen levels goes up, your happiness goes up... haha.

Enjoying your trees now is what it is all about~


Phoenix Dactyliferas!!


And Sagos!!

Along with other varieties of palms to make the three step design!
Check back for the before and afters!!

JoKE oF THe DAy... Frosty the Snowman... Gregory Palm Farms

 "Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul
With a corn cob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made of coal

Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say
He was made out of snow
But the children know how he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in
That old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around

Frosty the snowman was alive as he could be
And the children say he could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me

Frosty the snowman knew the sun was hot that day
So he said, Let's run and have some fun before I melt away
Down to the village with a broomstick in his hand
Running here and there all around the square
Saying Catch me if you can..."
