Phoenix canariensis

There is row of 25 of these Canary Island date palms in a local park and I've always thought how handsome they are.

I estimate standing around 20 m.

  I learned that this species is used extensively in landscaping. We have a problem here in Australia with them now becoming invasive. Posted 3 years ago

The Canary Island Palm

"Phoenix canariensis" is a species of flowering plant in the palm family Arecaceae, native to the Canary Islands. It is a relative of "Phoenix dactylifera", the true date palm. It is the natural symbol of the Canary Islands, together with the canary "Serinus canaria".
