Chamaerops humilis cerifera, also known as "blue dwarf palm" or Moroccan dwarf palm - a subspecies of Chamaerops humilis, a dwarf palm species native to the western and central Mediterranean region - the cerifera subspecies is a compact, multi-stemmed palm that typically grows between 1.5 and 2 metres tall - the stems are covered with brown, fibrous leaf sheaths and bear small, bluish-green fan leaves, which are arranged in clusters - the leaves are typically between 30 and 60 centimetres long - this palm species is very adaptable and can thrive in a wide range of soils and climatic conditions - however, it prefers sunny locations and well-drained soils - it is also very drought-resistant and can withstand prolonged dry spells, although it requires occasional watering to thrive optimally

We offer 5-6 year old plants, very well established, from our own seed propagation; with time with lateral young plants; not over-fertilised, therefore top healthy and robust (100% organic quality before quantity! ), no greenhouse/plantation culture; slow-growing, always overwintered outside on the house wall, hardy to a maximum of -10°C in a protected location; you can plant out the palm in spring (by the end of July at the latest, so that it can still grow well); requires a fully sunny location so that the blue-silver colouring of the leaves is retained, and frost protection in any case; ideal for a conservatory that is not temperature-controlled in winter; it is not necessarily a ‘houseplant’
