Phoenix reclinata (Senegal Date Palm) - The outside trunks on this large multi-trunk palm curve outward to allow for the inner trunks to grow. The leaves arch downward and the stiff leaflets at the base of the petioles become long narrow spines. It typically grows to 30 feet talll and forms a clump that can be as wide. It needs ample water which will encourage it to grow rather quickly. Plant in full sun. It is hardy to 28°F.
