PLANT PROFILE

Livistona australis, known as Cabbage Palm or Fan Palm, is a majestic evergreen Australian native palm prized for its tall, slender trunk and large, fan-shaped fronds up to 2 meters long. Growing 10–20 meters tall and 2–4 meters wide, it creates a striking tropical focal point in gardens, parks, and landscapes.

This palm produces subtle creamy-white flowers in late spring to early summer and thrives in full sun to partial shade. Adaptable to well-draining soils and tolerant of occasional wet conditions, it becomes drought-hardy once established. With low maintenance needs, the Cabbage Palm offers tropical elegance and shade for a variety of outdoor settings.

Mature Height: 15m - 25m Approximately (trunk height, slow-growing)

  • Medium Growth Rate

Feature Planting: Space 3 – 5 m apart to showcase form and fronds

How to Plant:

  1. Select a Location: Choose a sunny or partially shaded area with well-draining soil.
  2. Prepare the Soil: Ensure the soil is rich and well-aerated.
  3. Planting: Dig a hole slightly larger than the root ball, place the palm, and backfill with soil.
