Windmill Palm |
Description
This easy-to-grow palm will mature to a size of 30', and its slender trunk is covered with dense, heavy fiber topped with a crown of rich green, fan-shaped leaves that could spread 8' wide. Once it's established, it needs low to medium watering. This is great palm for a tropical effect near the pool.
