If your garden is looking a bit dull and tired, a new plant may be just the thing to make it pop. While a standard potted plant from the local garden centre will do, this interesting tree slashed in price is guaranteed to add a wow factor to any outdoor space.
The Phoenix Canariensis, more commonly known as the Canary Island Date Palm Tree, is a ubiquitous sight in tropical destinations such as the Canary Islands and some parts of the United States and Australia. While you may think these trees prefer warmer weather, they actually fair extremely well in the cooler, British climate.
That’s because they are exceptionally hardy and known to withstand chilly winters. In fact, they can flourish in temperatures as low as -6°C.
