With California being the Palm Capital, there are bound to be questions about these trees and their care. 

In an effort to assist you, here are some answers...

"How tall does a Palm Tree grow?"

            Each variety have different qualities of growth and depending on the water and soil conditions it will vary. Here is an approximation! 
      

The Canary Island Date Palm...

    Canaries are a large majestic palms, with a very solid trunk, and long feather leaves with spine petioles. Quite a popular plant due to its hardiness, attractiveness and speed of growth.We have them at the farm as tall as 45 feet but I have seen them up to 60 feet. Their circumference is anywhere between 6 to 9 feet.  They love full sun and a slow grower! 
         

The King Palm....

     The King Palm is very popular, elegant, and fast-growing palm from southern and eastern Australia has grass green leaves, a slim trunk, and a long, smooth crown shaft. An easy-to-grow plant suitable for cool temperate to tropical climates, or for indoors if given bright light. The King Palm is also self-cleaning, which makes maintaining a King very attractive. A medium grower! They are petite while young and develop the same way. 

         The Queen Palm...

    The Queen palms are a tall, medium trunk, straight tree reaching up to 50 feet tall, gracefully feathery top with a smooth trunk to 25', edible orange fruits. A fast grower! Their root system is pencil-like and can be planted easily in planters or side yards. These trees are so hardy! Great for a hammock too!!
        

The Phoenix Dactylifera...

    Date Palms are probably the second most well-known palm after the coconut , this palm produces dates. However, despite this palm being extremely adaptable to differing growing conditions, from hot, dry deserts, to wet tropics, and thru to cold-temperate regions, it will only produce dates in the hot, dry climates. It is also very salt-tolerant, making it good for coastal planting. This Palm  is medium grower! . They are the favorite for the Anaheim area. The tricky part is maintaining the diamond cut trunk! 

        The Phoenix Roebelenii - Pygmy Date Palm...

         The Pygmy Date Palm is a small stature, delicate lacy appearance and easy care make this an exceptional palm that everyone can enjoy whether outdoor or in indoor containers.

Pygmy date palm excels in containers of all kinds. Also looks great by patios and entry ways. Use clumps of these palms as specimens and to serve as focal point in a mass planting of annuals. Also nice combined with evergreen shrubs in a mixed hedge.

How to plant a Palm Tree

Want to establish an exotic look in your yard? Plant a palm tree! Plenty of varieties could work in your area. Short palms, tall palms, desert palms and cold-hardy palms grow well in different parts of the country. Follow these steps to learn how to choose and plant palms for a backyard oasis. Gregory Palm Farms has the Palm Trees you desire! Contact us, pick out your palm, and we will take care of the rest. It's that easy...

1. Choose the Right Palm For Your Climate

   If you experience milder winters, you can grow most any palm variety and can make your selection based on size and appearance. If you're in a part of the country where winter temperatures can dip into the 20s, you can still enjoy a variety of palm trees in your yard, including the shorter 8- to 10-foot sago palms and saw palmettos, and the taller European fan palms and Chinese windmill palms, which can reach 15 to 20 feet in height.    

2. Decide Where to Plant Your Palm Tree

   The right place for your palm will vary depending on what type of tree you have. Some grow tall fast; others need shoulder room. Different species require different exposure to sun. Be sure to find out what kind of space your tree will require as it grows by following the instructions on the tree's tag or asking the staff of your local garden center. Have a Gregory Palm Farms expert come and help you decide what Palm Tree is right for your space.

   
   

   
   

3. Planting Your Palm Tree

   Once you've purchased your palm tree from Gregory Palm Farms, be sure to keep the root ball, the tree's central mass of roots, moist but not saturated. Dig a hole that's twice as wide as your root ball, and deep enough that the top of the root ball sits one inch about the soil. Place the root ball in the hole and backfill with a mixture of one part native soil and one part Miracle Gro® Garden Soil for Palm Cactus & Citrus. This contains plant food specifically formulated for palms, cactus and citrus plants that will feed your palm for up to 3 months.

   Water Thirsty New Palm Trees

   
   

   For 2 to 3 weeks after you've planted your palm, keep it well watered. Wrapping a soaker hose around the root area will keep it moist while saving water. After the plant becomes established, you can cut back soak-watering your palm to about 15 minutes twice a month. Cut back on watering during the winter months.

5. Feed Your Palm Tree

   Palms have nutritional needs that other trees may not. They depend on ample supplies of magnesium, iron and manganese to keep fronds from yellowing or curling. To keep your palm green and strong, apply Miracle-Gro® Shake 'n Feed Continuous Release Palm Plant Food early in the season, and then about every 3 months thereafter. Work it into the top 1 to 3 inches of soil around the roots, then water thoroughly.
