The Canary Island Date Palm, or Pheonix canariensis, adds paradise to your yard. Commonly referred to as “Pineapple Palm”, this stunning palm tree features a thick trunk and rounded crown of stiff fronds, reaching mature heights of up to 50 feet. The base has a diamond-textured pattern that makes it resemble a pineapple. The canary grows at a slow to moderate rate. It is a relatively low-maintenance plant and only requires occasional watering and bright, full sunlight.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to Plant & Care for Canary Palm in Florida
Choose Sun + Clearance
Palms prefer full to partial sun. Allow room for frond spread and future trunk growth.
Plant Slightly High
Dig a wide hole and plant with the root ball level to slightly above grade. Palms do not like being buried.
Backfill + Water In
Backfill with native soil and water thoroughly to settle. Avoid compacting too aggressively.
Consistent Watering (Critical)
Water deeply and consistently during the first few weeks. Most palm issues come from under-watering early on.
Fertilizer + Pruning
Remove only fully brown fronds. Apply a slow-release palm fertilizer after the palm has settled in.

Will deal again Highly recommend / easy 5 Stars - thank you!!!
After scouring the internet for reviews for Landscapers I came across Dino's Palms and sure glad I did! The owner's husband and wife came and were very helpful picking out everything we wanted! We made a deal on doing my entire property and they personally came with a crew to install in one day! The plants were healthy and beautiful and the price for everything was much cheaper than anyone else!
Installed 11 4.5ft clusia plants in my front lawn, quality work finished in great time, thank you!
