A slow-growing species, the Windmill Palm (Trachycarpus fortune) can grow up to 40 feet. However, it is more commonly purchased and planted at heights of 6 to 10 feet. It is better to plant a tree with a height of 6 feet or more to help insure survive ability. The slow growth of this palm makes it ideal for use as an accent piece, so don’t hesitate to buy several and use them to frame your deck, pool or driveway. If you are going to want to plant your Windmill Palm it is best to plant the tree in the early Spring time to help the roots take hold. The Windmill Palm grows well in full sun to partial sun. It is able to adapt to many soil types as long as it’s well-drained. You can also pot a Windmill Palm in a large container and grow it on a patio or front porch. It’s wonderfully situated on a pool deck since it creates next to no debris that can land into the water. It is recommended if you pot your tree to bring it indoors during freezing weather. You do not want the soil in the pot to freeze. It takes longer for the soil in the ground to freeze then the soil in a pot. Besides the need for Winter protection during an extreme cold snap the Windmill Palm is fundamentally easy to care for, simple to grow and giving instant tropical appeal to any landscape, it is no wonder the Windmill Palm is considered the best choice of cold hardy palm tree to plant in the New York area. The opportunities to use this gorgeous tree are endless, so order your very own Windmill Palm today!

WINTERIZE YOUR TREESAfter successfully winterizing over 100 windmill palms last year, by building a wood frame around them and wrapping it in plastic. We found there was a lot of waste. So we set out on building a better system that can be reused year after year and has an easy setup. As your tree grows you can even purchase a two foot extension kit. This custom cover is made out of SUNBRELLA canvas, a breathable material. In addition the custom made PVC support poles snap onto the four galvanized post of the frame, making assembly quick and easy. This process requires no drilling or screwing so it makes disassembly just as easy.
