Pros and cons

According to our plant experts

Pro: Stoere, tropische uitstraling met lange, gebogen palmbladeren.
Pro: Staat in de zomer graag buiten op terras of balkon.
Pro: Kan een korte, lichte nachtvorst hebben.
Con: Sharp spines on the underside of the leaf stalks.
Con: Needs plenty of light; in a dark spot it goes downhill.

Details

The Phoenix Canariensis is a robust date palm with graceful fan-shaped leaves. This plant instantly adds a tropical holiday feel to your home or patio. A strong, characterful palm for large spaces.

Species: Phoenix roebelenii · Height: 230 cm (including nursery pot) · Pot size: ø50 cm

The pygmy date palm (Phoenix roebelenii) is naturally a compact species, but this specimen, at 230 cm tall, measured including the grow pot, is a substantial palm in a pot of ø50 cm. A sturdy, rough trunk carries a full crown of finely feathered, drooping leaves.

A large indoor palm like this looks good in a spacious living room, conservatory or reception area with plenty of daylight, and outdoors in summer on a sheltered terrace too. Place it in a bright spot, with some sun if you like, and keep the soil evenly moist without wet feet. In winter, water less and keep it indoors, as it can't tolerate frost. There are sharp spines at the base of the leaf stems. Not toxic to cats and dogs.

Delivery

Shipping a two-metre plant takes more than a box and some tape. That's why we do it differently from an ordinary online shop.

How your plant arrives in one piece

Fresh from the greenhouse
Your plant does not sit in a warehouse for weeks. The grower only takes it out of the greenhouse after you order and prepares it straight away.
Packed securely
In a box made for plants. Plant and soil are secured and a protective sleeve keeps the leaves intact, so nothing shifts on the way.
Protected from heat and frost
Is it very hot or freezing outside? Then we add a cold pack or heat pack to the box, so the weather doesn't affect your plant on the way.
The right carrier for every size
Smaller plants are delivered by PostNL or DHL. The very largest plants travel upright on a pallet with a specialist carrier.
You know exactly when it arrives
As soon as your plant is on its way, you receive track & trace by email, so you can make sure someone is home and, for a large plant, someone to help carry it in.

When will your plant arrive?

4–5working days after you order

Something wrong after all?

If your plant arrives damaged, send us a few photos as soon as possible. We'll send you a replacement free of charge, and you don't need to return anything.

Everything about delivery and shipping costs per country

Plant care

Location: Full sun, at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. Can also tolerate partial shade, but grows best in full sun.
Water: Water regularly; keep the soil slightly moist, but avoid waterlogging. Water daily in warm summer weather, less frequently in winter (about once a week).
Feeding: Feed palm trees weekly in spring and summer. Do not fertilize in autumn and winter.
Temperature: Can tolerate short periods of frost, but protect it with fleece or bubble wrap at temperatures below -2°C. Potted palms are best brought indoors during severe frost.

Flowering

A Phoenix canariensis in a pot almost never flowers. Only old palms many metres tall produce long clusters of small yellow flowers. You buy this palm for its tropical shape and foliage.

Plant height may vary by up to 10 cm. Height includes the nursery pot. The nursery pot may differ from the one in the photo.

★★★★Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd

Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd. De plant kwam een beetje beschadigd aan. Door dat de bladeren op een onjuiste manier in de doos waren gestopt. Verder is het een mooie plant.

★★★★★Goede service en een mooie plant

Ik ben blij verrast! Een mooie uitziende plant en goed verpakt ontvangen. Bij de mededeling vroeg ik of zij wilde kijken naar een rechtopstaande plant en als het kan iets groter dan aangegeven maat. Daar heeft de kweker ook goed...

Frequently asked questions about Phoenix canariensis

The questions we're asked most about this plant. Can't find yours? Our plant experts are happy to help.

Ask your question

Hoe groot wordt een Phoenix canariensis?

Planted in the ground in a warm climate, the Canary Island date palm grows very large, but in a pot it stays much more compact. It grows slowly and only forms a thick trunk after years. At XXLplant you can buy it from 140 to 230 cm tall, measured including the nursery pot.

Can a Phoenix canariensis stand outside?

Ja, van het voorjaar tot de herfst staat hij graag buiten op een zonnige plek. Een korte, lichte nachtvorst van een paar graden onder nul kan hij hebben, maar bij strengere of langere vorst zet je hem op een koele, lichte plek binnen of pak je hem goed in.

Where is the best place for a Phoenix canariensis indoors?

Give it the brightest spot you have, ideally close to a large south- or west-facing window. With too little light the leaves go limp and paler in colour. Turn the pot now and then for even growth.

How often should you water a Phoenix canariensis?

Water when the top few centimetres of compost are dry, roughly once a week in summer and much less in winter. Don't leave water standing in the saucer or decorative pot, as it doesn't cope well with wet feet.

Does a Phoenix canariensis have spines?

Yes, the undersides of the leaf stalks have long, sharp spines. So do not place it right next to a walkway or where children play, and wear gloves when you move or prune it.

How is a large Phoenix canariensis delivered?

Upright in our own plant box, with the crown in a paper sleeve and the pot secured in the box. In frost or heat we add a heat pack or cold pack, and the largest plants go with a specialist carrier, others with PostNL or DHL. It usually arrives within 4 to 5 working days.
