The European fan palm (Chamaerops humilis) is an evergreen shrub or small tree native to the Mediterranean region.
It grows in clumps, with multiple stems growing from a single root system. Each stem produces large fan-shaped leaves that are deep green in color and can reach up to 1 meter (3 feet) in diameter.
The European fan palm can live for many years, as long as it is not exposed to freezing temperatures. It is also very tolerant of drought and salty soils, making it an ideal choice for climates with hot summers and mild winters. When grown indoors or in protected outdoor areas, the European fan palm makes an attractive ornamental plant that adds structure and texture to any landscape.
In addition, it is also a great choice for creating a tropical atmosphere in an indoor environment. This hardy plant requires minimal maintenance and can be easily pruned to maintain its size and shape. With proper care, the European fan palm will bring a lush and exotic look to any home or garden.
