Cold Hardy Indian Windmill Palm


Hard to find live trees of Trachycarpus fortunei 'Naini Tal'! The 'Nani Tal' or Nainital eco-type Cold Hardy Indian Windmill Palm is a beautiful hardy palm tree from the mountains near Nepal, India! This hardy palm can reach heights of 10 to 30+ feet, depending on climate conditions. It is a moderate grower, faster than most other Trachycarpus palms we grow, and performed incredibly well in our cold high desert climate in Oregon! These used to be known as Takil but were correctly renamed in 2010. It is hardy to at least USDA zone 6b, and parent trees have seen temperatures below -2F. These particular trees were grown on our personal property in Oregon which is listed as a zone 6b, so they should hold good cold hardiness. These plants would make excellent additions to your hardy exotic plant collection, or just make a unique statement in your yard.
