Mexican Fan Palm Tree

Tall, towering beauty Bring the tall, slender beauty of the Mexican Fan Palm to your home. Native to  Southern California and Mexico, it is commonly called Skyduster or Mexican Washingtonia, and will quickly grow tall and make itself a statement palm in your property.  The thick canopy is filled with attractive, glossy green, fan-shaped fronds with divided leaflets near the ends. Each frond grows about 5 feet long with a spread of around 4 feet. If the colorful trunk and green canopy of fronds weren’t eye-catching enough, Mexican Fan Palms have the characteristic of developing a skirt of old fronds. The dead fronds bend down encircling the trunk creating what looks like a skirt. Adding color and interest are the reddish-brown, roughly textured, single trunks that eventually weather to gray. The Mexican Palm produces small, berry like fruits that attract birds and other wildlife.  The Mexican Fan Palm quickly grows into a tall and stately tree so it won’t have you waiting years for it
