3 Gallon Pygmy Date Palm – Monrovia Collection
Phoenix roebelenii, known as the Pygmy Date Palm, is one of the most elegant and versatile palms you can grow. Compact, slow-growing, and beautifully symmetrical, it adds tropical sophistication to both indoor and outdoor spaces. With its feathery fronds and graceful arching shape, this Monrovia-grown variety brings an instant resort feel to patios, entryways, and sunlit corners.
Perfect for Arizona’s warm climate, the Pygmy Date Palm is hardy yet refined — thriving in containers, garden beds, or as a centerpiece in tropical landscapes. Its easy-going nature and manageable size make it ideal for homeowners who want all the beauty of a palm without the upkeep of larger varieties.
🌱 Care Tips for Success
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light indoors or full sun to partial shade outdoors.
Water: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Water deeply and allow the top few inches of soil to dry between waterings.
Humidity: Tolerates average household humidity but thrives with a light misting every few days.
Fertilizer: Feed monthly during the growing season with Fox Farms Grow Big or Tiger Bloom to promote lush fronds and strong roots.
Soil: Use Fox Farms Ocean Forest or a well-draining palm-specific mix. Add perlite for aeration in pots.
Maintenance: Remove lower yellowing fronds as new growth appears. Clean leaves occasionally to maintain their sheen.
