Pygmy Date Palm (Phoenix roebelenii) is a dwarf palm known for its graceful, feathery foliage and compact form. Typically growing 6–10 feet tall, it’s ideal for small spaces or as a potted feature in tropical-style landscapes. The slender trunk and delicate, arching fronds create a soft, layered look that works well near walkways or seating areas. This palm prefers filtered sunlight or light shade and thrives in well-drained soil. Though it’s subtropical by nature, it can survive brief dips in temperature and does well in protected microclimates or containers that can be moved indoors during cold snaps.
