About this product

A No-Fuss Statement Plant That Truly Stands Out We love a statement plant. But what we love even more is a statement plant that doesn't act like a diva. And that's why we love the Needle Palm Tree: no fuss, no muss, all beauty and grace. This compact and resilient palm is as tough as it is beautiful. Known for its lush, fan-shaped fronds and ability to thrive in a variety of climates, the Needle Palm (Rhapidophyllum hystrix) is one of the most cold-hardy palms out there. While you'd be forgiven for thinking this palm is named for its long, thin leaves, that's incorrect! The name actually come from the short, sharp, needle-like spines that grow at the base of the plant. In the wild, these "needles" help protect the plant from animals that would otherwise devour it for lunch. Full, Fun Texture The Needle Palm is what's knows as a "clumping palm," meaning it grows from a variety of stalks (clumps) rather than one single trunk. This creates a dense, layered look that provides your garden with amazing texture and visual interest all year long. (It kinda gives 'art-deco wallpaper in the bathroom of a scene-y restaurant' vibes.) The combo of wide-spreading fronds and a multi-stemmed structure makes it both a highly durable and beautiful choice for most of the United States (it's rated for zones 6-10!). Great for use as a privacy border, foundation planting, or tropical-looking understory accents. Why You’ll Love It: Cold Hardy: Survives temperatures as low as 0°F, making it a rare gem for northern gardeners craving tropical flair. Compact Growth: Reaches just 6 to 8 feet tall — perfect for smaller spaces and patios, or as an accent in larger gardens. Works in Containers: Its compact size means its great in planters.
