- Phoenix Palms might be our most popular genus due to their variety of sizes and usefulness in the tropical landscape. Here's my walkaround where I explain how to tell the difference between them and we take a close-up look at some specimens of Phoenix Roebellini, Phoenix Sylvestis, Phoenix Reclinata and Phoenix Dactylifera. Enjoy and share.
BTW- Please check out my other channel: Jupiter Inlet Boats and subscribe. It's a new channel and it takes a lot of time and effort to film the boats so I would appreciate the support.

I don't mind the longer videos, I enjoy seeing more palm time.
Thanks, the trouble is in the editing. I grab the camera and just go capture an idea...then realize I have to make something of it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
The Canary Island Date Palms get massive here in California. The actual date Palms grow all over here, but only fruit once you get away from the coast where it gets like 110°. Most Phoenix palms are scary if you have to deal with them up close. Those spikes can go through your hand or arm with no problem.
You are right on both counts. They are actually desert palms that thrive in the dry air around LA. Here is moist south Florida they are very prone to ganoderma and other diseases and are being replaced with other varieties of Phoenix palms. I have also seen falling fronds go right through leather boots. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Love the tours around PBG and jupiter. Cant wait to get back there. A royal palm video would be great (I didnt look to see if you've done one already). And also the different types of coconut palms they have down there
That’s interesting. Royals, (no video yet), huh? OK, it will be on the list. 1 problem with them is that I have to bring out the big camera since they are so tall. Did you watch the tour of my tropical yard? czcams.com/video/E73bCAAHRIk/video.html
@Richard Sites yes that's the first video I ever saw of yours (the one that made me subscribe, and I believe we chatted on that one). You have great content! I think one on royals would be great because they arent all that widely spread (location wise, esp U.S.) and you're in the best spot to do it. It's the best 🌴! Looking forward to more of your content!
Great video, Richard! Awesome content, information and the camera is capturing a beautiful image. Love you sharing this! Thanks for walking around!
You’re welcome, thanks for enjoying the video and commenting. More coming, stay tuned.
@@RichardSites Awesome!
Canariensis, Reclinata and Sylvestris are mu favourites
Thanks for watching and commenting
Thanks for the awesome video
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the info..california phoenix palm you mentioned..im about to ask but you mentioned in your blog..great
Thanks for watching. Be sure and check out the playlist "Tropical Plants".
Fantastically interesting vid. New subby!
Thanks, I lent my camera to a cousin traveling to Europe but when it comes back I can start making videos on plants again. Be sure and watch the video called My Tropical Yard and thanks for the sub.
Loved this video. I’m in love with the canary island date palm
Thanks for watching and commenting
Can you make a video about the various types of dates and when to eat them, which palms produce the fruit, ect..
Also a video on Phoenix Reclinada would be great
I don't know much about dates except that they make a mess on the ground underneath the trees. As for PR, I only know of one clump in this area and it is on property with very heavy security patrols but I will keep it on my list.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
As far as I know, only dactylifera fruits are edible among the phoenix palms.
This was a trip, I clicked on your video and didn’t expect you to be at the gardens mall then next clip you’re literally in my neighborhood (I live in Southview)
Yep, I live on Philadelphia Drive
I have a Phoenix Roebellini in my front yard I planted two years ago. They are slow growing but stately.
Yes they are, great palms
Keep up the good work very enjoyable
Thanks, I enjoy making them. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you for a great Informative video. I want more detail on king and queen palms share a video if you have something on that.
Thanks for watching
I wish Albuquerque has palm trees. I see some around neighborhoods, but it would be amazing to see them like Phoenix.
I’ll bet there are varieties that would survive at the lower altitude or if protected from the north wind.
Thank You Mr. Palm
Thanks for watching and commenting.
What about Phoneix atlantica, endemic to cabo verde islands, called tamareira by locals, in the atlantic ocean next to coast of Senegal. Diffrent from Phoneix canariensis, they both originate from similar contexts (atlantic arid islands) but cabo verde provides much more precipitation and humidity even during high temperatures in specific areas also offering shelter from strong winds in steep valleys and it has more lush and luxuriant vegetation than the Canary Islands such as Cocos nucifera (taller than the little poor ones that grow in the canary, exposed to strong dry hot winds), Coffea arabica, etc.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Can you do a video on beccariophoenix alfredii?
I'm not familiar with this palm, I will have to check it out. Thanks for watching.
I bought a small palm that’s labeled with a little tag as a reclinata, but no other details are given. I’m trying to decide where to plant in the yard, but if it’s a Phoenix, I don’t want to plant too close to the house. It’s so small that a trunk has yet to develop. Any suggestions on how to identify the specific species?
Sorry, no but I would believe them and give it plenty of room. Failing to allow enough space for trees is one of the most common mistakes.
In San Diego we now have the South American palm weevil which is wiping out the majority of Phoenix Canariensis which is unbelievably sad. The Phoenix Dactylifera tend to hold up against the weevil. Also fusarium wilt is killing the canariensis also. There used to be so many all over the place and now it is all being undone. Hundreds of years down the drain. The city does absolutely nothing and leaves the palms to die all over the place with no end in sight.
I was not aware of this, thanks. Those monster palms all over LA cost thousands and thousands to replace. My cousin lives in Overland Park and some bug has infected their neighborhood's giant shade trees and they are losing them all.
@@RichardSites Hi Richard. The palm weevil has not made it to Los Angeles yet and I pray that it doesn't. This has been a very sad phenomenon considering the canaries seemed very robust before the weevil and had spread all over the city and canyons, along the beaches, etc. naturally since the 1700's from what I read when they were brought here by Junipero Serra and his settlers. At one point you couldn't go more than a few blocks without seeing one dead. The second most likely to get killed by it is the Bismarck palm. Every once in a while it kills a Sabal or pritchardia but it is pretty rare. It is difficult to treat and no one does anything about it. I have witnessed thousands of dead canaries in the last few years. The Washingtonia robustas aren't affected by the weevil along with queen, king and most other palms we have here. The chilean wine palm can fall victim also. Thanks for your video. I really enjoyed it.
Thanks for your comment I know everybody enjoys it
Can I plant a dactyliferra in north Georgia? I heard they’re pretty cold Hardy.
Thanks
DK, better check the internet. If I had to guess I would say no and that's a pretty expensive gamble.

Thanks for watching
Which is phoenix dactyliferia
The taller Phoenix palms with a rather thin trunk. Thanks for watching and commenting
