New fronds are crimped, golden-green that stand out against orange-brown stalks. Once mature, multiple crowns result in a dense, crimpy dome of fronds. The established specimens in our garden have been subjected to bright sun and somewhat dry conditions and have tolerated it well. Who knows what it might do with part shade and plenty of water. UK native.

Carefully packed for each plant

Once your order is ready, we bring the plants from our greenhouses into a holding area. Each plant is wrapped by hand and, when needed, staked to protect tender stems. Because our inventory is so diverse, we adjust the packing method for each plant based on its size, type, and stage of growth.

We reuse clean paper and plastic packing materials whenever practical. It is easier on the planet and helps keep shipping costs down for you, too.

Choose your Monday ship date

At checkout, choose from the available Monday ship dates. We ship with UPS from Monmouth, Oregon, and you will receive an email with tracking information when your shipment is prepared or enters the UPS system.

Arrival times vary by destination and weather, so we cannot guarantee a specific delivery date or time.
