Christmas Palm – Veitchia merrilii (syn. Adonida merrillii)

A Native of the Philippines the Christmas Palm is a most attractive compact palm with umbrella like bright green foliage. Veitchia merrilii is reasonably small growing and will grow to about 5m.

Arching fronds to around 2m give the tree a nice shape. The Christmas palm will flower and the yellow flowers are followed by green berries than ripen to a red color.

Landscaping Uses

This a palm tree that look good planted in groups of 3 – 5 ( we like the odd numbers). It is not a species that will tolerate long cold winters so is more suited to Brisbane and further north. As it is smaller growing than some other similar palm trees it makes a versatile landscaping plant.

Growing well in full sun to part shade, it is a palm tree that withstands wind fairly well and also grows well in containers.
