Mediterranean Fan Palm – Chamaerops humilis
The Mediterranean Fan Palms are perfect for your Arizona yard. They have a unique appearance and compact size. The Mediterranean Fan Palms are used as a focal point in yards, around pools, or in a courtyard to make a statement, or as an accent to larger landscape features.

They thrive in the intense heat and full sun, require minimal water, and survive our periods of freezing weather with little or no damage.
