Windmill Palm Tree – A Cold-Hardy Tropical Beauty

The Windmill Palm Tree (Trachycarpus fortunei) is the perfect solution for adding a tropical feel to your landscape, even in cooler climates. Unlike most palm trees, which thrive only in warm, humid regions, the Windmill Palm is one of the most cold-hardy palm species available. It can withstand temperatures as low as 5°F (-15°C), making it an excellent choice for homeowners in temperate zones who want to bring the look of the tropics to their backyard.

With its unique fan-shaped fronds, slender trunk, and minimal maintenance requirements, the Windmill Palm is an ideal addition to your garden, patio, or even indoors as a container plant.


Why You’ll Love the Windmill Palm Tree

  • One of the Hardiest Palm Trees – Can survive cold temperatures down to 5°F.
  • Tropical Appeal for Cooler Climates – Perfect for zones 7-11 but can grow in zone 6 with protection.
  • Compact & Space-Saving – Grows upright with a slim, textured trunk, making it ideal for small yards.
  • Low Maintenance & Pest Resistant – Requires minimal pruning and is naturally resistant to pests.
  • Versatile Growing Options – Can thrive in containers or be planted directly in the ground.
  • Drought Tolerant Once Established – Requires moderate watering but becomes highly drought-resistant as it matures.

A Unique Palm for Any Landscape

The Windmill Palm gets its name from its distinctive fan-like fronds that resemble the blades of a windmill. These elegant, deep green leaves grow in a symmetrical pattern, creating a striking focal point in any yard. The trunk is covered in a coarse, fibrous material that adds to its rugged beauty while helping it withstand harsh winter conditions.

Because of its compact size, typically growing between 10-30 feet tall with a slender 6-12 inch trunk, this palm fits well in a variety of landscape designs. Whether you’re looking to line a driveway, accentuate a patio, or create a tropical oasis in your backyard, the Windmill Palm is a fantastic choice.


Thrives in a Variety of Climates

Most palm trees require hot, humid conditions, but the Windmill Palm defies expectations. It is well-known for its ability to handle cold weather and can grow in areas where most other palms cannot. It is hardy in USDA Zones 7-11, and with some protection, it can even be grown in zone 6.

  • Zone 7-11 – Thrives outdoors year-round.
  • Zone 6 – Can survive with winter protection, such as mulching around the base and wrapping the trunk in burlap.
  • Indoors/Containers – Can be grown in pots and brought inside during the winter in colder regions.

If you live in the northern parts of the U.S. but have always wanted a palm tree, the Windmill Palm makes it possible!


Minimal Care for Maximum Impact

Sunlight & Soil

The Windmill Palm is adaptable to both full sun and partial shade, making it a flexible option for different yard conditions. It prefers well-draining soil, but it can tolerate various soil types, including sandy, loamy, or even slightly clay-heavy soils.

Watering Needs

Though it appreciates regular watering when young, the Windmill Palm is quite drought-tolerant once established. Water deeply once or twice a week until the tree matures, then reduce watering as needed.

Fertilization & Growth

Fertilizing once or twice a year with a balanced, slow-release palm fertilizer will help promote lush green fronds and steady growth.

Cold Protection

If you live in a colder zone, a layer of mulch around the base can help insulate the roots. Wrapping the trunk in burlap or frost cloth during extreme cold snaps can further protect your tree.

Pest & Disease Resistance

The Windmill Palm is highly resistant to pests and diseases, making it a low-maintenance choice for any homeowner. Unlike other palms that require frequent treatments, this one naturally resists most common palm problems.


Perfect for Homeowners & Landscapers Alike

The Windmill Palm is an excellent choice for both beginner gardeners and professional landscapers. Its easy care, striking appearance, and adaptability make it a favorite for:

✔ Home landscapes & gardens
✔ Poolside tropical settings
✔ Patios, decks & container planting
✔ Entryways & driveways
✔ Commercial properties & cityscapes

If you want to bring a touch of the tropics to your home without the hassle of high-maintenance palms, the Windmill Palm is the perfect tree for you. It’s one of the most cold-tolerant palms available, and with its elegant look, it’s sure to make a lasting impression.

Add the Windmill Palm to your landscape today and enjoy year-round tropical beauty—no matter where you live!

Make this one a holiday tradition.
Format: Hardcover
This is a lovely book that offers the entire holiday experience rather than just Santa and gift giving. The author goes step by step addressing the signs (weather, shorter days, etc.) that take us to Dec. 25th. This is a "family tradition book" that you'll want to keep and bring out each year after Thanksgiving. Set this book on the coffee table in the living room so that everyone can enjoy it. Book supplied by publisher.

Signs of the Christmas Season
Format: Hardcover
Written in a lyrical format, AND THEN COMES CHRISTMAS is a children's book that illustrates various signals that lead up to the Christmas holiday. It begins with changes of the weather and includes cutting paper snowflakes, hanging colored lights, elves and Santa Claus in stores, looking for a Christmas tree, holiday concerts, making and wrapping gifts, and various other activities. The illustrations are warm and joyful and feature a bi-racial family. AND THEN COMES CHRISTMAS makes a good book to read in mid-November and early December to children.

It Should be Read by Parents and Children Together
Format: Hardcover
I will always remember that when I was a child, I read Manners Can be Fun by Munro Leaf with my mother. When I found out that 4 of his books, including Reading Can be Fun, were still available I hunted them down. As a parent and psychologist, married to a teacher, I believe that all parents should read this book, as well as the others, with their children at an early age instead of letting them watch TV unattended. It worked with my children. It is an investment well worth the time.

Love them all!
Format: Hardcover
My son has long loved the story of Ferdinand (as have I), so I was delighted to be pointed to these books, now back in print. My son is impatient to read, and reading this aloud to him has been wonderful...For him to think of the places he'll go, and the friends he will meet and share with others is magical. All within books. I highly recommend!
