About This Plant

Trachycarpus wagnerianus (Dwar), 'Dwar' is valued in the landscape for character, form, and seasonal interest.

Miniature Chusan Palm , slightly smaller, stiffer fronds than T. fortunei; arguably more wind-resistant. Coldest-hardy refined fan palm.

Full sun to part shade suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained soil. Hardy USDA Zone 8 to 11. As hardy as or hardier than T. fortunei; superb for windy coastal sites.

True palms are not native to the PNW; for a similarly bold evergreen specimen, consider Arbutus menziesii (Pacific Madrone) , sculptural reddish bark, glossy evergreen leaves, and a place of pride in southern Oregon's native flora.
