Robellini Palm TRP 25G

Robellini Palm Triple in 25-Gallon Pot available in Jupiter, FL

Graceful, compact, and full of lush island vibes—the Robellini Palm, or Pygmy Date Palm (Phoenix roebelenii), is a go-to choice for tropical elegance in smaller spaces. This triple-trunk form adds layered fullness and visual rhythm, making it a standout for poolscapes, patios, and entryways. With its arching feather-like fronds and soft, tidy stature, it fits beautifully into nearly any South Florida garden design.

This 25-gallon size offers a well-established specimen with lush, full canopies—ready to drop into a tropical landscape or large container.

Care & Growing Info (Optimized for South Florida):

• Sunlight: Full sun to partial shade. Performs best with 4–6+ hours of light per day.

• Watering: Moderate. Water regularly during establishment; becomes semi-drought tolerant once mature. Avoid overwatering in poorly drained areas.

• Soil: Prefers well-draining sandy or loamy soil. Great in pots or directly in the landscape.

• Fertilizer: Feed 3 times per year with a palm-specific fertilizer rich in magnesium and manganese to prevent yellowing.

• Growth Habit: Multi-trunked palm with soft arching fronds. In a 25-gallon pot, typically 5–6 feet tall. Can mature to 8–12 feet tall and wide.

• Temperature: USDA Zones 9b–11. Cold-tolerant to around 25°F, making it one of the more chill-hardy tropicals.

• Maintenance: Low. Trim only dead fronds. Minimal leaf drop and no invasive roots.

Foliage & Trunk Notes:
Feathery, finely divided fronds form a dense canopy. Trunks are slender with a slightly textured, patterned appearance that enhances its sculptural appeal.
