The Vulcano Dwarf Palm (Chamaerops humilis 'Vulcano') is an exceptionally beautiful and rare palm species that originally comes from the northern side of Mount Etna in Sicily. This exclusive variety is characterized by its compact, dense growth and its strong, dark green leaves with a fine, silvery-white wax layer. Its stable structure and slow-growing trunk give the palm an almost bonsai-like appearance, making it a true rarity among container plants. The Chamaerops 'Vulcano' is an evergreen and hardy palm that can withstand temperatures down to about –10°C without any problems. It loves sunny locations and copes well with both heat and drought. In hot summers, it should be watered regularly, but without waterlogging – well-drained soil is ideal. Thanks to its slow growth, the dwarf palm is perfect as a container plant on balconies, terraces, or in the garden. It can also be planted directly in open ground. Larger specimens of this rare palm are particularly sought after and hard to find, as they grow only slowly. – Botanical Name: Chamaerops humilis 'Vulcano' – Origin: Sicily (Italy) – Height at delivery: 45–55cm (including pot) – Pot diameter: Ø24cm – Location: Sunny, bright – Soil: Well-drained, humus-rich – Water requirement: Moderate, avoid waterlogging – Hardiness: Down to approx. –10°C (with protection) – Growth form: Compact, bushy, slow-growing – Use: Container plant, garden, terrace, balcony – Special features: Rare variety, evergreen, easy to care for, Mediterranean flair
