They see it and assume it'll struggle in a British winter. It doesn't. Mature specimens handle temperatures well below -10°C and some have been growing in UK gardens for decades without so much as a fleece. It's the closest thing to a truly carefree outdoor palm you'll find.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNative to central and eastern China, Trachycarpus fortunei develops a distinctive fibrous, hairy trunk over time and large, deeply divided fan-shaped leaves that can reach a metre across. It grows a little faster than most palms, adding real presence to a garden over a few seasons rather than decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plant is also known as the Windmill Palm and the Chinese Windmill Palm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant in full sun or lightly dappled shade in well-drained, fertile soil. Shelter from strong, cold or drying winds - the leaves can shred in exposed positions. Water regularly while establishing; once settled, it's relatively low maintenance. Feed in spring and summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDecorative pot not included.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beards \u0026 Daisies","offers":[{"title":"60-70cm","offer_id":55534040973688,"sku":"W08044","price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"100-110cm","offer_id":55534041006456,"sku":"W08045","price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8970\/4482\/files\/trachycarpus.jpg?v=1779206157","url":"https:\/\/www.beardsanddaisies.co.uk\/products\/trachycarpus-fortunei","provider":"Beards \u0026 Daisies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
