Bismarckia nobilis
Climate Resiliency
1 out of 5 stars
An interesting large scale palm with huge blue-green, waxy, fan-shaped fronds. Good as a striking specimen or cluster in large spaces. Not suggested for small yards. Does not transplant very easily so try to plant from containers. Only moderately salt tolerant. Somewhat cold sensitive in our area.
