About This Plant

Sun or shade. Evergreen, with spiny petioles on the leaves. An extremely cold-hardy fan palm, with multiple stems rising from a single base; it’s one of the most effective landscape palms for south-central Texas. It forms multi-trunked thickets. Spines make it an effective barrier plant. Give it good drainage.

Maintenance

None required; generally self-pruning. Allow it to dry out between waterings.
