Common Name Fan Palm Variety 'Khasia Hills'
Regional Names  
Botanical Name Trachycarpus martianus
Description Considered the most elegant species in the genus and previously named Trachycarpus khasianus. This palm is a fast and very easy to grow palm with attractive arching large fans that create a full, but airy crown. It is said to tolerate moderate frost, to 20 degrees F. Khasia Hills Fan Palm is from Northwest India where it grows on rocky slopes. It has a delicate structure and a bare (hairless) trunk. It also has a very delicate look for cooler climates. In zone 8 or cooler it will need some protection. Worth a try.
Notes
All of our 1 gallons are grown in a 4x4" square x 14" deep pots and 3 gallon are grown in 7x7" square x 18" deep pots to allow for a deeper root system which aids in our Palms winter survival. Customers are having much better success with our palms surviving the winter over growers that use traditional shallow pots.
