Tropical palm tree. Needs full sunshine. Drought and moderate frost resistant. Quite fast development. Silvery-blue leaves. Bismarckia develops fairly quickly into a large and stunning tree that is excellently suited for the subtropical or tropical garden, for parks, and for breathtaking avenues.
The Bismarck Palm has a full crown of large, silvery-blue, circular, fan-shaped leaves and a tall, columnar trunk. In seedlings and young plants, the leaves are tinged with an unreal purple-red color.
Running water at room temperature for 7 days and sowing at 20ºC/30ºC.
