Chusan Palm (Trachycarpus fortunei) care tips & plant information

Chusan Palm (Trachycarpus fortunei)

    Care tips

  • Position: Partial shade or full sun.
  • Watering: Water regularly during growing season. Do not overwater. Water less during winter, only make sure the root ball does not dry out.
  • Hardiness: Frost hardy down to -9°C (mature plants can tolerate even lower temperatures). Protect from severe frost and cold drying winds.
  • Pruning: Remove lower leaves as they become brown or tatty. Cut close to the trunk.
  • Soil: Well-drained. Fertile. Repot every two to three years.
  • Fertilisers: Feed regularly during growing season with Palm fertiliser. There is no need for fertiliser during the winter period.
