One of the most beautiful of the palm species, this palm is often cultivated for its sweet, edible fruit. The fruit (dates) can range in colour from bright yellow to bright red, depending on the variety. Date Palms are slow-growing and can reach up to 30 metres and live for as long as 150 years! This plant needs a long, hot growing season, and although they tolerate a variety of conditions and soil types, prefer free-draining soils with good moisture-holding capacity.
