Needle Palm

Plant in moist, slightly acidic, humus-rich, well-drained to moderately moist soil in partial to full shade; needle palm is the world's most cold-hardy palm, surviving temperatures as low as 0°F to -5°F — making it the only truly cold-hardy palm for zone 7 and one of the outstanding choices for providing a tropical look in surprisingly cold climates. It grows naturally in the understory of moist coastal plain forests and swamp margins in the southeast US (Florida, Georgia, South Carolina) and is adapted to significant shade. It is extremely slow growing (3–6 inches per year) and develops into a clumping, stemless or short-stemmed palm with dramatic fan-shaped leaves. The sharp black needle-like spines on the leaf sheaths deter both deer and humans. Excellent for creating tropical texture in a shaded southern garden. Спосіб посадки: Висадка розсади Відстань між рослинами: 48–72 дюймів Висота: 36–72 дюймів Дні до схожості: 60–180 Температура ґрунту для схожості: 24–29°C
