Pygmy Date Palm trees are perfect when you want the tropical feel of a Palm tree in your landscape but you have space or scale restrictions. The Pygmy Date Palm will top out at 8 to 12 feet tall and it will grow to that height slowly.

Pygmy Date Palms are perfect for small yards and gardens. They perform well as container plants on a patio. This tree is usually a single trunk plant but you may find nurseries that group several together.

Very sunny locations with good moisture and sheilded from the wind are perfect for the Pygmy Date Palm. Be sure to plant this tree where these is no chance of a frost as this plant is especially sensitive to cold weather.
