{"product_id":"trachycarpus-fortunei-windmill-palm","title":"Trachycarpus fortunei (Windmill Palm)","description":"\u003cp\u003eWindmill Palm is the cold-hardiest true palm commonly grown in the Pacific Northwest, and one that genuinely thrives along the Oregon coast. The fan-shaped fronds emerge from a slender, fibrous trunk that gives the tree a classic tropical silhouette without the tropical climate requirements. Established specimens have survived temperatures well below freezing, making this the palm of choice for gardeners in Zones 7 and 8 who want a genuinely permanent tropical effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a sheltered coastal garden, Windmill Palm grows steadily and can reach 20 to 30 feet over many years, though it stays quite manageable and narrow for a long time. The texture of the shaggy brown fiber that wraps the trunk adds interest even in winter when little else is happening in the garden. Plant in a location protected from the heaviest ocean winds, which can damage the fronds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWindmill Palm is relatively low-maintenance once established. It appreciates good drainage and benefits from a slow-release fertilizer in spring. Remove older fronds as they brown naturally at the base, cutting close to the trunk. This is a plant that draws comments from every visitor to a garden, and for good reason.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Langlois","offers":[{"title":"1-gallon","offer_id":44051557810264,"sku":"01106044","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"15-gallon","offer_id":44051557908568,"sku":"01306005","price":198.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1gal","offer_id":44051557941336,"sku":"16206044","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5-gallon","offer_id":44051557974104,"sku":"02006038","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/dragonflyfarmlanglois.com\/products\/trachycarpus-fortunei-windmill-palm","provider":"Dragonfly Farm \u0026 Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
