Canary Island Date Palm should be grown in full sun on
fertile, moist soil for best growth but is tolerant of any
well-drained soil. It can be planted on the inland side of
coastal condominiums and large homes due to moderately high
salt-tolerance. It does well as a street or avenue tree,
even in confined soil spaces. Canary Island Date Palm will
require pruning to remove old fronds. Older leaves
frequently become yellow from magnesium or
potassium-deficiency. Preventive applications of appropriate
fertilizer helps avoid this. Avoid damage to the trunk by
locating it properly in the landscape and keeping landscape
maintenance equipment away.
Only prune fronds which hang
below the horizontal. Do not remove those growing upright
since this may slow the growth and reduce vigor.
