About the Needle Palm ...
FALL IS THE PERFECT SEASON FOR PLANTING PALM TREES!

The Needle Palm is a terribly talented plant that is beautiful, rugged, extremely cold hardy, fast growing and a landscaping favorite. It is a small shrubby fan palm that grows to about 6 ft in height. It produces suckers freely, these multiple stems creating an ever widening rounded clump of indeterminate width. Over time the tightly packed stems will form an impenetrable thicket. The needle palm doesn't form a trunk but instead has a slowly lengthening crown that may grow to about 4 ft long and about 7 inches in diameter. The stems are composed of old leaf bases, fiber and long slender spines. Needle Palms are usually erect but in older clumps they may lean or grow prostrate along the ground as they compete for light and space. As each stem matures, more slender spines grow from between the leaf attachments. These "needles" are dark brown or black, very slender and sharp and grow from 4-10 in long. This palm is native to the southeastern United States. Populations can be found in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and South Carolina. (USDA Zones 8-10) Needle palm grows on shady wooded slopes as well as in moist bottom lands along streams. Needle palm prefers fairly moist, well drained soils with lots of organic matter but is very adaptable to less than ideal conditions. Light applications of fertilizer a couple of times a year in spring and summer will reward with faster growth rate.
