Saw palmetto
A robust, elegant Mediterranean bonsai
The Dwarf Palm bonsai, or Chamaerops humilis, is a Mediterranean plant prized for its robustness and unique aesthetic appeal. Its exotic appearance and characteristic palmate leaves add a touch of wilderness and originality to any space. As a bonsai, this palm offers a fascinating contrast between its slow growth and compact form, ideal for shaping into a mini-tree.
Easy to care for and adaptable
Chamaerops humilis is particularly well suited to bonsai cultivation, thanks to its moderate growth and resistance to difficult conditions. It prefers a bright spot, but must be protected from intense direct sunlight to prevent its leaves from burning. It also tolerates regular pruning very well, giving it an elegant, structured shape and encouraging its slow, harmonious growth. It's an ideal choice for bonsai enthusiasts who want to create a tree with a unique character.
The only thing to watch out for is its sensitivity to cold. The Dwarf Palm needs to be protected in winter, as it does not tolerate temperatures below 5°C. We therefore recommend growing it in a cold greenhouse or conservatory during the cold season.
