2-branched - main trunk with side trunk; diameter of the palm crown about 40-50cm, height about 60-70cm (incl. pot), not over-fertilised therefore top healthy and robust (100% organic quality before quantity!), no greenhouse culture, grown slowly, always overwintered outside on the house wall - 450 m above the sea level, in a protected location hardy up to max -10C; you can then plant out the palm in spring (by the end of July at the latest, so that it can still grow well. ...); needs a FULL sunny location so that the blue-silver discolouration of the leaves does not recede and certainly frost protection; ideal for a winter garden that is not temperate in winter.
