Add a pair of these tropical beauties to your garden to create a real holiday feel for many years.
A relative of the date palm, Phoenix canariensis is a large palm tree, with spreading deep green leaves arching elegantly from its attractive, stout trunk.
During a hot summer, drooping bunches of creamy-yellow flowers may appear.
Holding a prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, the Canary Island date palm makes an excellent evergreen specimen plant for the patio or conservatory.
Phoenix canariensis enjoys a sheltered garden position in the UK, although will cope with temperatures down to -6C (21F).
The Phoenix Palm is undeniably impressive and can grow to more than 12m in its native Canary Islands.
Fortunately, here in the UK and when restricted in a container, it reaches a much more manageable height of 1.5m (5').

Customer's feedback-
I have just received a pair of Phoenix Palms from you. They are stunning, at least as big as advertised, and exceptional value for money. My first time - but I'll be back for more. SC, June 2015
