Description
Windmill Palm
is one of the most cold hardy palms
available. It is beautifully compact and
grows to heights of 20 to 40 feet. Windmill
Palm has a rather slender single stem that
is 8 to 10 inches in diameter and is
typically a bit narrower at the base than at
the top. Trunks are usually covered with a
loose mat of coarse gray or brown fiber. In
older individuals the fiber sloughs away to
reveal a smooth ringed surface. Chusan Palm,
as it is also commonly called, has light to
dark green palmate leaves that are lighter,
almost silvery (glaucous), on the underside.
They are held on thin 3 foot flattened stems
that are finely toothed along both edges.
Leaves are circular, about 3 feet in
diameter and segmented about halfway. They
are flat with leaf segment tips held
stiffly, but occasionally you will see
individuals with droopy tips. Leaves are
arranged into a symmetrical crown that is
about 8 to 10 feet wide. Specimens grown in
full sun and/or under poor conditions may
have much smaller, more compact crowns.
Male and female flowers are borne on
separate plants (so this palm is said to be
dioecious). They are densely arranged
on 2 to 3 feet long branched stalks called
an inflorescence. The windmill palm's bright
yellow inflorescence erupts from a
packetlike bud in late winter and early
spring and is held within the crown. On
female plants the flowers are followed in
late summer by round or oblong blue fruits
that are about 1/2 inch in diameter.
Usage
This palm makes a great accent which fits
well into small areas like courtyards and
entries. It is a tough plant and survives in
hot urban landscapes and even thrives there
if watered and fed. Chusan Palm is perfect
for containers if care is taken that they
are well drained. It is very attractive
planted in groves and groupings especially
when plants of different heights are
staggered in irregular patterns (plant the
tallest palms in center of the groups and
shorter ones at the edges).
