Bismarck Palm

16 years ago

I have 2 of these in 15 gallon container, about 4.5' in height.

What is the minimum spacing for these palms?

I want to plant them tomorrow as a surprise.

Thanks & Merry Christmas,

Dave

I would probably space them about 15-25 feet apart, probably more. They grow pretty fast and HUGE. I saw some in florida abotu 30 feet apart from each other and they were almost touching.

Good luck and Merry Christmas!

At least 20' or more if possible. I planted a 4 footer last summer... it's now 6 ft tall! 2 ft in 6 months!
