Botanical Name Trithrinax campestris
Description Native to the countries of Argentina and Uruguay this palm has the rigid stiff fronds with a glaucous blue/green color. Maturing to 15'High x 6'Wide. The Blue Needle Palm is cold hardy to around 10 degrees F and is considerably rare. A real treasure to create a South American theme and a very impressionable site to behold. Consideribly cold hardy but to what temp it declines I have no info at this time. Being a palm of uplands it requires a very well drained sites for planting.
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.
