With it’s solitary stem and beautiful fan shaped leaves it provides a wonderful focal point in any garden.
\nIt’s growth is relatively fast but it’s worth investing in the largest specimen you can afford for maximum impact, in a very good year and optimum conditions Chusan palms<\/a> will grow around 15cm per year but on average it will be less.
\nThe irregular division of the leaves which can be a metre across give a stunningly tropical silhouette atop a tall fibrous stem. Trachycarpus<\/a> originates from China and was brought back to the UK in the 19th Century and is prized by UK gardeners creating a tropical planting scheme.<\/p>\n

\"Trachycarpus<\/a>

Trachycarpus Fortunei is also known as Chusan Palm – a hardy palm for the UK climate<\/p><\/div>\n

It loves the sun and will tolerate drought conditions once it is established after planting, the main consideration is NOT to plant in an area prone to waterlogging during the winter.
\nComplimentary planting for a tropical scheme should include tree ferns<\/a>, cordylines<\/a>, gunnera mannicata<\/a> and butia capitata<\/a>\u00a0or pindo palm<\/a>
