Description

The Mexican Fan Palm is a large palm with very large, fan-shaped leaves. It has a tropical look, and grows rapidly. This variety is excellent for larger gardens and lining streets and avenues. It has become invasive in certain areas of California. Dead fronds can create fire hazard. If your property is adjacent to a channel, please consider NOT planting this palm as it can end up clogging the channel or suffocating trees.
