Chamaerops humilis var. cerifera (Blue Mediterranean Fan Palm)

SunZone: 7b-10 180" tall Origin: Morocco

Web-Only! This selection of the European fan palm hails from the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, where it grows up to 5,400' elevation. Instead of green foliage like the species, this variety has powder-blue foliage and silver undersides, similar to Brahea armata. According to palm gurus Gibbons and Spanner, these plants are vigorous, tolerant of a wide range of conditions, and beautiful. We have not trialed these for hardiness, but typical C. humilis has been hardy here, and this variety reportedly has good hardiness potential...so, these are for adventurous gardeners only. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
