Mexican Fan Palm
Washingtonia Robusta


Washingtonia Robusta - The Iconic, Easy-to-Grow Fan Palm:
The Washingtonia Robusta, also known as the Mexican Fan Palm, is a stunning evergreen palm that adds bold architectural structure and tropical flair to any outdoor space. Its tall, slender trunk-often compared to the texture of a pineapple-boasts earthy tones and naturally shaggy bark that adds visual interest year-round.
Graceful Fan-Shaped Foliage
From the crown of its towering trunk, this palm unfurls dramatic fan-like fronds that splay wide, offering both aesthetic appeal and welcome shade. The broad, glossy green leaves not only enhance the look of your landscape but also provide a cooling canopy that attracts birds and beneficial insects.
Sun-Loving & Easy to Maintain
If you're looking for a low-maintenance tree with a high visual payoff, the Washingtonia Robusta is a perfect choice. It thrives in full sunlight and can adapt to a range of soil conditions. Once established, it's drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering. This makes it ideal for those in warmer climates or those seeking a hardy addition to xeriscaped gardens.
Seasonal Blooms Add Bonus Beauty
With the right care and plenty of sun, this palm rewards you with delicate clusters of small white flowers, adding a soft, seasonal touch to its dramatic presence. These blooms attract pollinators, helping your garden's ecosystem thrive.
