About the Trachycarpus fortunei - XL1
Trachycarpus fortuneiTrachycarpus fortunei, commonly known as the Chinese Windmill Palm, is a cold-hardy palm from the Arecaceae family native to China and parts of the Himalayas. It naturally grows in mountainous regions where it experiences cool winters and variable weather conditions. Due to its exceptional hardiness, it is one of the most popular palms for temperate climates.
The palm develops an upright trunk covered with fibrous remains of old leaf bases. At the top, it forms a compact crown of large fan-shaped leaves that provide a classic tropical appearance. Its combination of elegance and durability makes it widely used in gardens and landscapes.
