- Hi everyone,
Welcome to a new Timelapse video.
This is a short video of the growth evolution of my 'Phoenix canariensis' in 11 years here in Belgium.
Also known as 'Canary date palm'.
Planted out at the beginning of 2009, so now (2020) already 11 years in open ground @ Belgium. (Zone 8b)
Enjoy the video and the enormous growth of this beautiful Palm.
Dutch 🇳🇱, German 🇩🇪, French 🇫🇷, Spanish 🇪🇦 and Italian 🇮🇹 subtitles are now also available for this video !😉👍
Also check my other Timelapse video's... • My Timelapse videos
Many greetings & fun from Belgium ! 😎
Dimi
Be sure to check out my other videos for even more exotic fun...
Tip: It's so fun to watch my videos on a 4K TV 😉👍

You sir are an inspiration to people who really want to grow these kind of palm in different climates. You rock!
Thank you very much Eddie for those kind words. Pleased to hear. :-)
I'm going to try to make more videos of my other palms like this.
Wow - you planted one of these in Belgium - outdoors - and kept it alive! Now that is talent. I planted my Phoenix Canariensis (in Florida, USA) from a seed sprout and the trunk reached 13 feet after growing for 27 years and the crown was beautiful... then it died of a virus carried by Palm Leaf Hoppers that a hurricane blew north from Mexico. :( The virus is killing that variety all over the state now. Hopefully it will not migrate there. You garden looks amazing.
Thanks for the nice response Thea. It is my passion so I am willing to do something for it. Such palms are unique here in Belgium and that challenge is also the nice thing about it. Good winter protection is a must here, but you see what we get in return ...
Sowing such a palm here and then reaching a trunk with a full crown of 4 meters at 27 years is something we can only dream of. Must have been great for you. Very sorry to hear that you lost it to that virus. I also hope that virus doesn't come here ...
Hopefully you have a worthy replacement in the meantime.
Many greetings from Belgium. :-)
Is the virus fusarium wilt? In San Diego we now have the South American palm weevil and it is killing every single one and it is so sad. These palms covered Southern California and now they are disappearing so fast it is unbelievable. The weevil doesn't kill most other palms but can kill the Bismarck palm and a few other rare ornamentals but it is mainly the phoenix canariensis. We do have fusarium wilt here but it doesn't seem to be a big problem.
@@araucariasightings3247i moved from Holland to Spain 4yrs ago. Also here in spain we have the weevil. Its a red coloured one. Many phoenix canariensis are dying. I also see just a view Who where taken care of and now have a New crown and still recovering. Its a big plague here these days. I dindt know about the bismarckia nobelis. I have a small one 😅. Had 2 canariensis 1 died this summer because of the weevil😢
I heard you have the red palm weevil over in Spain. It's strange how the canariensis are so susceptible versus other kinds of palms. It is pretty rare that a Bismarck gets killed but it happens on rare occasion so you probably don't have too much to worry about.@@ricardop9220
It's all so bad to read about your problems everywhere with the red beetles & viruses...😔
Fortunately, we do not (yet) suffer from this here in Belgium due to our cold climate.
I feel for you guys...🤜
Wow your garden is so beautiful!
Thanks ! 😊
Magnificent work 😮! ❤❤❤ 🍃 and dedication 😅
Thank you Victoria 🙏😊
I’m 5 years behind you with mine. East coast Ireland. Obviously much milder winters here, but still a worry about the occasional week of hard frost we get every 10 years or so. You have done an amazing job. Hats off to you, simply stunning.
Thanks downburst1. My canariensis is one of my first palms and is doing great indeed. At the moment it is blooming for the fourth year in a row. It's a female ...
So if I understand correctly, you never protect yours ? Do you have a photo or a link where I can view yours ? It probably won't be long before you too can walk underneath it.
:-)
Greetings from Belgium
Dimi Hi Dimi. I never protected it, but grew in a pot until early May this year when I planted it out in the garden proper. I have two eight year old Trachycarpus in the garden and will add to them, similar to you. You’ve inspired me to do a video right now. Here you go th-cam.com/video/CROKilLGfzU/w-d-xo.html
Nice that I inspired you@@downburst1. I saw your video. Handsome Trachy's, nice and thick. Your Phoenix stands good there. Will now grow even better once it is well rooted in the open ground. I really like the back part of the garden with the narrow corridors between the Bamboo.
Amazing how resilient these palms are. Your garden is lovely
Yes indeed, thank you very much. 🙏😊
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden just planted my first phoenix today in the middle of my garden! Hope it grows as big as yours!
That's a good place Nathan. I hope so with you... 😊The most important thing is good protection in winter. So be sure to check out my other videos about my winter protection.👍
Wunderschöne Palme 👍🌴
Thanks 😊
beautiful garden and tree! thank you for sharing 😍
Thank you for your compliments & response. 🙏😊
Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪
Absolutely gorgeous! My seeds just germinated here in Arizona!
Thank you Daniel 😊👍
And great that your seeds have just germinated. Always fun growing your own. Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪
Wow, such a beautiful palm tree!
Thanks Edward ! 😊
Your garden is wonderful 😍🌴🌴🌴
Thanks ! :-)
Such a beautiful palm tree. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks ! 😊
Wow this is insane! What an amazing video! Keep it up bro!
Thanks Justin ! 😊
I have one of these growing in my back yard in San Diego, CA.
I think they are the most beautiful palm trees.
You gotta look out for those spikes when trimming though. Vicious!
Yes Pat, verry beautyful palms and those spikes are dangerous indeed 😖
I have 15 Date Palms on my property and trim them easily with no issues wearing LEATHER welding gloves....
Majool Date trees are the best.
@@barryhunnel2420 Thanks, good tip from those welding gloves. And 15 Date palms....wow, that's really great.
Same, in Escondido!
beautiful
Thank you, it's still a cool video indeed 😊
Within a few days a new video will be online of the winter protection of this Phoenix. 👍
Thank you so much for this cool video. This is so nice to see. I look foward to see more videos like this.😊 Subscribed 🤜
That's nice to hear. There will definitely be many more of these videos to come.
Thank you so much for subscribing & supporting 🙏❤😊
Super vidéo qui montre également l'évolution du jardin en 10 ans tout autour du Phoenix qui trône en son milieu !
Merci Philippe 😊👍
I started to grow A date palm. I germinated A date seed and I saw a root sprouting. Can't wait until it grows big in couple years!
Cool to hear.
Yes, if you let them grow from a small age, they will be the most beautiful.👍
That is also much more fun than just buying a large one.
It also goes much faster than you expect.
Have fun.😉
Impressive!! Thanks for sharing. We plan on getting one of these for our home.
Thanks Sorit Chan ! 😊
Good luck and enjoy yours...👍
best you google first .. they grow to 65 foot by 40 foot

Great job! 👍👍👍Your CIDP looks really good and happy. 🌴😎🤗🥳💪🌴
Thanks man 🙏😊👍
fantastic. i just started a new garden where it was full of bins and old cars - got it cleared and i bought my 3rd phoenixia today for a few pennies in nearly dead shop . my first 2 are fantastic and doubled size in just 4 months - i recommend these if u have a sunny binyard i live in YORKSHIRE UK - theres one round corner with dates on it !
Sorry for my very late response... just now saw your comment and I didn't get a notification about this...🤷♂️
Thank you. 😊 Yes Phoenix are nice palms. They grow quickly and are very beautiful. Have fun with your palms too. 👍
Superbe jardin, ce palmier est magnifique ! Bravo :)
Merci beaucoup 😊👍
So beautiful
Thank you Ahmed 🙏😊
thank you Dimi for this video, it's enjoyable to watch. i came from a town that has to many oases and date palms. and i would like to share some traditional tips that i wish it can help when transplanting the date palms.
- first make sure to tied up the leave before putting the planet in the ground as well as covering the leave on sides but not in top. the reason because to protect the head/heart of the tree from weather changes and the new soil. this technique is to allow it to produce new leaves n set it in the new home. the head of the tree is the major point instead of the roots when it comes to the date palm.
-second, it's not prefer to add too much soil on the trunk when transplanting the date palm. the roots needs to get position on ground first. as what happened in the first two years its slow growing. adding soil like mountain on the tree trunk is only if you want faster growing with tiny trunk. its prefer to make a basin on the ground because they need water the most. as its showing it become having big trunk now but it needs to grow higher. this might be sounds strange for some but do not water it everyday. only one time a week, why? let the roots find its food this will make it grow fast. second method, put soil around the trunk on the ground for faster growing, why? date tree prefer to many sources.
Thanks for the tips Malek ! :-)
The reason we in colder and wetter climates put them on soil mounds is so that the palms are not sitting in water as it can get very wet at times which could cause root rot, but if its on a mound like this the water drains into the leveled ground or atleast the excess does.
Exactly like Mat C says 😊
@@matc4547 thanks to explain 👍😇
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden no problem and amazing palm by the way.
Danm it is massive :O Very nice and good work. Looking forward to see future growth :)
Thanks Kenny ! 😊 There will certainly be more videos and a sequel to this one. 👍 Greetings from Belgium.
super cool video, very beautiful garden
Thanks Helbert 😊
Doing that in detroit with phoenix theophrasti, hoping it's slightly smaller and easier to manage. Thanks for showing us.
Beautiful, looks majestic!
Thank you very much. Great Phoenix indeed. Check out my latest video, where you can see how it is now...😉

Hey, cool video, thanks for that!👍🙂
Thanks, it's an old video but it's still cool indeed...
There will be an update of this Phoenix at the end of this year 😊👍
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden I'm so glad I found this channel, I look forward to every new video.👍🙂
@@Bexoncraft Nice to hear and thank you for your support 👍
I also checked and subscribed to your channel. 🤜
Great job with your renovations 👏
Very impressive, I think I will never put my 30 year old Phönix canariensis in the ground, I definitly have not the place for such a grow. Thanks for the documentation, maybe you can include the winter protection in following videos
Thanks Peter ! 😊
Yes, this palm need a lot of space indeed.
I was prepared for this as you can see in the video. 😇
For my winter protection you can take a look at my Facebook --> facebook.com/Exotisch.Hofke.Dimi/
But I am indeed thinking of making a video of the winter protections because I get this question more and more ... 👍😉
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden I have a 30-year-old Phönix canariensis at home and it is already so big that it will make us at home. Do you think that it could be realized in the Czech Republic as well? I live in the south and there is a mild climate and relatively warm.
@@handmadeporhansl It does not need an extreme amount of heat to grow properly, so it should certainly work. A 20°C to 25°C is ideal.
The most important thing is how are the winters there with you? During the winter it is very important to keep it dry and sheltered by building a cage around it. When it starts to freeze you can close the cage completely and heat it like I do if necessary. The temperature should certainly not fall below -5 ° C.
Greetings from Belgium & good luck.
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden Thank you for the information and answer. Winters are mild here, but I will definitely have to take anti-frost measures just like you. I would like to plant a palm tree this year. In which month would that be ideal? Now in the spring ever in May?
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden Basically, I don't even know what kind of palm I have, it's probably lat. Phoenix dactylifera, because I grew it from the fruit of a woodpecker from a seed. Do you think that the same conditions are needed for this type of palm tree? I read somewhere that this species is the least demanding and grows practically everywhere, of course with sufficient protection in the winter months? I am not familiar with this, so I ask and I will be grateful for the answer. Greetings from the south of the Czech Republic.
11ans de videos ! chapeau
Merci Anthony 😊
What a beautiful Phoenix. I live 200 miles north west of you. I'd love to be able to grow a palm like yours. I have a tropical garden but no Canariensis. Well done. I'd like to know more about your winter protection.
Thanks Thomas !
Do you have pictures of your garden somewhere?

Excellent very impressive
Thanks Darren ! 😊
Ça donne des frissons 👌je viens d en acheter un il doit faire 15 cm, cette vidéo va me donne la force
Merci. Profitez-en. Cela va plus vite que vous ne le pensez. Les trois premières années, il pousse tranquillement car il doit s'installer dans le sol. Après ça va nettement plus vite. 👍😉
A Labour of ❤. Inspiring video💫
Thank you Mike 🙏😊
Bonjour,
Superbe réalisation et superbe passion.
Tu devrais aller vivre dans le sud de l’Europe, et reprendre tes palmiers par convoi exceptionnel là bas .
Cordialement.
Merci. Oui ce serait super en effet.👍
Mais déterrer tous mes palmiers et les soulever ensuite au-dessus de ma maison avec une grue sera un travail énorme et très coûteux aussi. Sans parler des dommages que subiront les palmiers du fait de l'excavation...🤷♂️🙈
WOW!!!, this is giving me hoping in trying to grow tropical trees in zone 7. Thank You
It is possible if you protect enough 👍😊
Excelente video, gran amor a esta hermosa palmera, felicidades.
Gracias Victor 😊👍
Thank you so much for this, I was wondering what to do with mine, now out grown it's pot.
Salut je kiff grave vôtre jardin et cest vraiment le style que je voulais faire mais avec quelques palmier dattier que jai semé sur le fond du jardin , bne continuation , on voyage chez vous sa donne la pêche et le soleil quant on vois celà
@Imran, Merci pour la réponse agréable. 😊👍
Lovely garden
Thanks Terry 😊
respect man! mijn dadelpit is nu een weekje ontkiemd, die krijgt een plekje naast bij mijn citroenen, mango en andere zuiderse planten :)
heeft hij ooit gebloeid?
Dank je Hannes. 😊 Jazeker, hij bloeit nu elk jaar met meerdere bloemen. Het is een vrouwtje, maar wegens gebrek aan een mannetje komen er natuurlijk geen bevruchte zaden aan...
Oh It,s really so beautifull and thank you i can see it :-)
Thanks Melinda 😊
very beautiful
Thank you 😊👍
Lovely palm, I have three in the U.K. in pots I won’t risk them in the ground as we go down to minus seven or more in the the winter .
Thank you. 😊
Wow, three pieces you must have a lot of space. It is indeed a risk that you have to want to take and a conscious choice to always want to protect.
Same here, -7°C and lower is also common here. Hopefully another mild winter...🤞
Spectacular
Indeed, Thanks 😊👍
Excellent! really, really nice.
Thanks Stewart 😊
Incredible
Thanks Jordan 😊👍
Great job men 👍🏼😍

Nice video!
I love all the Phoenix and i have some Phoenix dactylifera.
Can you produce bananas there?

Thanks Ahmed ! 😊
Wow!!! Szok 😲, ja też takiego chcę 😂👍🌴 moje palmy są duże, ale on robi super efekt!
Dziękuję Ci 😊👍
Magnifique jardin ❤ pouvez vous me dire quelles sont les différences entre mâle et femelle svp? Quel diamètre de stip à l'âge adulte , et quel espace conseilleriez vous pour installer un phoenix? Merci.
Salut Corinne, merci 😊
La différence entre mâle et femelle réside dans la floraison. Vous pouvez le voir dans les fleurs. Les fleurs mâles sont plus jaunes et plus pleines. Les graines proviennent des fleurs femelles.
Le diamètre de mon tronc est désormais de 1,5 mètres, le diamètre total des feuilles est désormais de 8 à 9 mètres. J'espère que cela vous aidera, si vous avez des questions, posez-les 👍😊
Salutations Dimi

This is insane, what a big beautiful palm! What are those beautiful bananas at 2:03? Almost look like Ensete ventricosum but more purple. Please do a video of how you protect your palms! Great job!
Thanks man ! 😊
The purple/red bananas you see at 2:03 is 'Ensete ventricosum maurellii'. So it is the red version of de green ventricosum. Indeed very beautiful. 😍

Super:)
Dank je Dennis 😊
Hello Dimi, an interesting report about planting your phoenix palm. I will plant mine out in April. Why did you put the palm tree so high? Many greetings Bernhard
Thanks Bernard. The idea behind planting on a hill is that the roots are a bit drier during the winters. It also gives the advantage that you can walk under the leaves a little earlier. 😉
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden Thanks for answering. Reason enough 😂
It's beautiful. :) How cold is it in Belgium in winter? Didn't Phoenix palm really get special protection?
Thanks Kira !😊 It can sometimes get -10°C or lower here. Good winter protection + extra heating is therefore a must. I build a box around it with polycarbonate sheets and I heat with a fan heater.
You can always view photos of it on my facebook. The link is in the description of the video. My Facebook is public so everyone can view everything, even without a facebook account. 😉
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden Thank you!:))
nice done, i have one and its now 3 years and it still the same size ( in the netherlands)
Thanks Michael ! 😊
That is not abnormal in the Netherlands. If you plant a palm here or in the Netherlands, it will slowly grow above the ground for the first 3 years. This is because it is mainly growing underground. The palm is settling for the first three years, then suddenly it goes much faster ...
Our growing seasons are short and cool here, in the warm countries all that goes faster ...
Hi Michael, just this spring I have planted Phoenix Canarianses in Netherlands - any tips from your three years experience on watering, food, winter care? Please help.
@@GanesanDragon much water on hot days. In winter dry and hold it above -5°C 👍
We have a 40 year old one in our garden. They are high maintenance and the frond spikes are toxic. Rats and rabbits also try to live in it! I don’t recommend them sadly.
40 years old..., must be a great palm Marty...👍
The spikes are indeed very dangerous, the palm tries to protect itself of course.
At the moment I find it little maintenance and no pests here either. Of course it varies from place to place... 😇
Wow 👍🌴😉
Thanks Pawel 😊
Every palm picture taken and posted should have a person (like 3:35), and ideally the same person, standing beside the palm. Why? For scale! Otherwise it's very hard to get a sense of the palm's size and its growth from picture to picture. Unless we compare very early pics with end pics, the growth of the palm is difficult to gauge. Make it easy. In the future have Mom or yourself standing next to the palms.
any dates u got of it ? btw, really cool and nice to see that
Hi, Thanks. No, no dates, the fruits don't fully grow here...🤷♂️
tried to grow these in old house but too cold over winter, moved to essex coast hoping for more success this time , like to see update of your one now jan 2022
Hi John, thanks for your response. I hope you have more success now. 👍Currently mine is back packed in its box. So you won't see much if I take a photo.... but in my last video of 2021 are recent photos.😊

I live in Zone 8b.
-5°C is common here and down to -10°C occasionally. It has also been below -10°C several times, even -18°C once, but those are really exceptions.
It looks beautiful 😍
Thank you 🙏😊
Really interesting thank you. Thats a great result. We have one and i have pricked my fingers even through strong gloves twice now while trimming the lower smaler lewves. Trust me it hurts for a good few days as the tips stay under your skin, need to be careful. Subbed. 😅

Great result indeed, this video is already quite old, but it has grown a lot in the meantime. I plan to update this video at the end of this year 😉
And yes, those pricks are deadly, I have also been badly pricked several times...😔

hi Dimi, what you did is amazing. you inspired me and starting today i have a phoenix in my garden. i'm in Bucharest Romania, winter is a little hard here, can you tell me what is the low temperature that he endure? thank you
Thanks ! Nice to read that I also inspire people. It's a challenge in cold countries like us, but that's the nice thing about this hobby. We therefore have something unique. :-)
Good winter protection is very important. This Phoenix canariënsis can tolerate moderate frost in a dry state. -5 ° C to -6 ° C is approximately the limit.
My Phoenix is packed every winter by building a box around it with polycarbonate plates of 32mm thick. (more layers inside)
If it starts to freeze really well I close the box completely and if the temperature drops below -5 ° C, then I heat with a fan heater and keep the temperature in the protection around or just below freezing.
Unfortunately I can not post photos here so for photos you better can take a look at my facebook -> facebook.com/Exotisch.Hofke.Dimi/
There you will find several winter photos per year and everyone can see it, even without a Facebook account ...😊

Thanks washbea. 😊 We certainly have winters here. It can sometimes get -10°C or lower here. Good winter protection + extra heating is therefore a must. And if we do that correctly, you will get this in return. 👍
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden And the palm resists at these temperatures? I life in Germany, don't think I could get that here. How do you heat it?

Bedankt Gert Umans. 😊
De palm word ieder jaar ingepakt met een hok bestaande uit polycarbonaatplaten. Bij strenge vorst gaat dat hok dan volledig dicht en word het bij verwarmd met een warmteblazertje om de temperatuur rond het vriespunt te houden. Op mijn facebook vind je nog veel meer info & vele foto's

@@heavencloserheaven3421Sounds good 😊
-9°C for Phoenix canariënsis is a bit exaggerated, the limit is approximately -6°C. But definitely something to do there in Bulgaria 👍
Good luck 😁
Damn if you can grow them in Belgium that means you can grow them in Bulgaria too since it’s a lot south and close too Greece!
If you protect them sufficiently they can grow anywhere. 😇 The question is always, what are you willing to do during the winters. Good luck if you try it 👍
Belgium benefits from water temperatures similar to that part of greece in winter.
@@amanzella6508 I didn’t know that it’s pretty interesting
Hele mooie video! hoe heb je het gedaan met de hoeveelheid water en hoevaak? Heb je hem ook bemest? Keep up the good work!
Dank je Alain ! 😊
Tijdens warme/hete dagen moet die toch een flinke slok water krijgen. Ik heb een waterput dus dat is geen probleem. Ik geef dus regelmatig water tijdens warme perioden, ongeveer om de twee dagen. Een dag wel, een dag niet, enz...
Voeding af en toe een keer maar niet veel. Hangt ook af van wat ik op het moment in huis heb. Krijgt 2 a 3 keer per jaar eens voeding om een idee te geven. 😉👍
Any reason you put it in such a big earth mound when you first planted it? I just planted mine straight into the ground (south-west France).
At that time I was still inexperienced and I got the tip from experts to place the Phoenix on a hill. So that the roots stay drier during the winter. I had done that a bit too exaggerated and during watering a lot of soil washed away from the hill because it was too steep of course. I didn't want to disturb the palm again by digging back out, so I just made the mound much bigger in diameter. This way the slope became much less steep and the palm could just stand and continue to grow. You can also see this in the video at 1:13
Just wow! Did you use any fertilizer?
Thanks Danny ! The Canary does get some organic fertilizer very occasionally indeed. But certainly not excessive.
Well done!
Thanks Tom ! 😊
Awesome palm!!! Great job! Could you tell me how do you overwinter this kind of palm? Do you use some polycarbonate frame and some extra heating? Thanks a lot for you answer!
Hi Ivan,
Thanks !
Idd, my Phoenix is packed every winter by building a box around it with polycarbonate plates of 32mm thick. (more layers inside)

Stunning Palm!!! Bought one of these about a month ago but I was wondering if you prune the palms branches or hire somebody to do it because of the thorns on the lower fronds. But the palm hasn't grown the trunk like you had in 2009 so it's still early days, kinda just want to be ahead and know what I'm doing :)
Hi, yes I prune it myself. It's not so difficult at all. Just use a strong pruning shears with long handles. 😉👍
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden Thank you :)
Purchase HEAVY duty welding gloves and you will love trimming your Date palms.... I have 15 on my property and trim them with ease...
Im in the uk, but a north facing garden. Mine grows SO slow! Hahahah. Its a nice short full plant however
Hi Bob, they do need a little heat to grow well. But once they get some size it will go smoother. 😉 Still enjoy yours.

Bonjour. Votre palmier est magnifique et quel superbe jardin.
Je viens d'en récupérer un, un canariensis, en mauvais etat en pot chez un ami. Je l'ai replanté en pleine terre en espérant lui accorder une seconde chance et une belle vie. Je le trouve superbe.....a 60 ans, c'est la première fois de ma vie que je plante un arbre, je le regarde constamment et je serais heureux qu'il devienne aussi majestueux que le votre. J'espère aussi être toujours de ce monde pour l'admirer dans 10 ans. Puis-je vous demander quels soins et precautions avez vous pris pendant toutes ces années pour arriver a ce si beau resultat?.
Merci d'avance, et portez vous bien.
Merci Bruno. 😊 Comme c'est gentil d'avoir et d'avoir planté un phénix. Bien sûr, vous pouvez toujours en profiter dans les 10 ans, il faut assumer. 60 ans c'est encore jeune 😉
Les soins ne sont pas si difficiles, surtout beaucoup d'eau pendant les journées chaudes / chaudes et parfois de la nourriture ...
Je ne sais pas d'où vous êtes exactement, mais pendant l'hiver il doit toujours être bien protégé du gel et de l'humidité. Je construis donc une pièce autour d'elle chaque année et en cas de fortes gelées de -5°C ou moins, la pièce est chauffée. Vous pouvez le voir dans mes autres vidéos.
Bonne chance et amusez-vous bien avec 👍
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden Je suis sur la cote normande, au Havre exactement. Mon joli palmier semble se plaire ,pour l'instant.... Il est bien ensoleillé et a l'abri du vent, arrosé régulièrement ,sans excès, et bien " nourrit" une fois par semaine... par contre, je ne pense pas lui construire de " maison" pour l'hiver, il sera bien enveloppé quand les gelées viendront. Merci pour vos conseils....et je vais m'efforcer d'etre là pour suivre sa croissance pendant les 10 prochaines années. C'est promis.
@@scoubidoubidou76 Bon de l'entendre.
Merci pour votre message et bonne chance avec votre palmier. 👍😊
Very Impressive !!!
Thanks ! 😊
Toll
hallo . Mega ,sehr schön ,Frage ? hast du die vertrockneten Äste abgeschnitten ?
hatte meine kleine ( ca 180 cm) über den Winter im Keller !
lg Wolf
Wenn die Blätter vertrocknet sind, können Sie sie durchaus beschneiden.
Du sagst den ganzen Winter im Keller, ich hoffe, dass sie dort auch Licht und etwas Wasser haben? Da das auch notwendig ist, sollten sie nie ganz dunkel sein.
Und wenn Sie sie wieder nach draußen bringen, müssen Sie sie zunächst wieder an die Sonne gewöhnen. Stellen Sie sie daher in den ersten Wochen in den Schatten und nicht in die Sonne, da sie sonst verbrennen.
Bonjours 🙂
J'ai une petite question ?
Pourquoi lui avez vous mis en hauteur d'un monticule ?
Qu'elle genre de terre avez-vous utilisé ?
Je trouve qu'il a poussé assez vite.
En tout cas il est MAGNIFIQUE 👍👍👍🌴🌴🌴
Merci Gianni !
Dans mes premières années, j'avais reçu la colline comme un indice pour que pendant les hivers, elle soit légèrement plus sèche avec ses racines. Au début, j'avais rendu la colline un peu trop raide, de sorte que lors de l'arrosage, la terre était toujours emportée. Pour résoudre ce problème et ne pas avoir à le creuser à nouveau, j'ai agrandi le monticule, ce qui le rend moins raide.
Cette colline n'est certainement pas un must. Je n'ai rien fait de spécial sur le terrain. (google translate...)
OK super 👍merci pour ta réponse super rapide 😁✍️
J'habite au Danemark 🇩🇰.
Ici la terre est très humide ☔, tout comme en Belgique ☺️il pleut beaucoup 💦. Grâce à toi et t'on expérience j'espère réussir de même 🤔🤔 ça va être dur 😅🌴
J'ai remarqué que tu as aussi planté des bananier waooo ils sont magnifiques. Belle réussite..
( je suis Belge aussi) 😉🇧🇪

Bonjour Dimi
J'ai vue toutes ces fantastique jungle que tu as dans ton jardin 😀👍, mais dit moi, en hiver chauffe tu les racines ou tu le couvre tout simplement ?
Amicalement gianni 😉
@@pilot2987 Salut Gianni,
Ravi d'entendre aussi un Belge, mais au Danemark 👍
Beaucoup d'humidité n'est pas un problème pendant la saison de croissance, il faut beaucoup d'eau. Cependant, pendant l'hiver, c'est moins bon. Il est donc indispensable de le garder au sec et à l'abri pendant l'hiver. Je fais cela au moyen d'une cage robuste autour d'elle. S'il fait trop froid, je ferme complètement la cage et la chauffe dans la cage. Je chauffe à partir de -4 ° C ou moins, puis je maintiens la température dans la cage autour du point de congélation. Ce sera tout un défi là-bas au Danemark, mais c'est certainement possible, tant que vous le protégez très bien et que vous le chauffez pendant l'hiver, cela fonctionnera certainement.
Pour de nombreuses photos de ma protection hivernale, vous pouvez également consulter mon Facebook. Il est public, donc tout le monde peut le voir même si vous n'avez pas de compte Facebook vous-même. Le lien se trouve dans la description de la vidéo.
Salutations de Belgique et bonne chance 😀👍
Try growing something like a Siberian pine or larch from hardiness zones 1 and 2. What will be tougher in Belgium: they or a palm? 😃
I don't have room for it anymore...🤷
And I like Palm trees much more...😊😉👍
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden I tried planting a date palm as a houseplant 3 years ago. It grew very slowly, and then this year it died 😭 No idea why. I suspect underwatering, but I am not sure. Maybe not enough light in winter. But all my plants survive winter, ranging from dracenas to cedars. So no idea.
@@dmitrimikrioukov5935 That's too bad 😔
A date palm is not a suitable palm for in the house. The humidity in the house is too low (too dry air) and also too little light, even if it is at the window. 🤷♂️
If it didn't grow well, it probably had root problems. A 'Phoenix roebelenii' is better for indoors, looks like a small date palm. 👍
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden Yeah, I also suspect the soil was too light, didn't hold water well. The package said "for palms", but during watering the water would just go through, with little staying in the pot.
Sehr geil,
hab mir jetzt auch eine geholt👍
Vielen Dank. 😊
Du hast recht, genieße deine. 👍
Bonjour avez vous apporter de l'engrais à la plupart de vos palmier?
Y en à t'il un en particulier où celui que l'on trouve dans les jardinerie suffit amplement ?
Salut Alain,
J'utilise des engrais, mais pas tant que ça.
Il est préférable d'utiliser des engrais organiques, la plupart sont bons.
Parfois, j'utilise aussi le «grain bleu» normal (pour les plantes vertes), ce qui est également bon, mais il s'agit d'un engrais synthétique, alors soyez prudent. Il a une action agressive rapide et courte, alors ne l'utilisez pas trop et trop souvent.
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden Slt merci pour votre réponse je suis aller voir votre Facebook quelle travail magnifique je vais aménager notre terrain actuellement en plein travaux
Je vous enverrai des photos une
Fois planté nous allons ce week end voir pour de nouvelle espèces
Actuellement nous avons beaucoup de tachycarpus fortunei on va varier un peut bon week-end Dimi à bientôt
Can I plant date palm in Serbia
What are the average temperatures there during the summer and also during the winter? With adequate protection and with heating, this is possible in many places...
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden in the summer 29-39 Celsius,in winter 0- -20
@@user-nz6lk7rl4z Ow those are extreme temperatures 😊
If you do it well during the winters, so pack well and heat enough, it will work there too. Just make sure the palm is dry and sheltered during the winter and never gets below -5°C temperatures. If you are heating, you just have to keep the temperature in the protection around or just above freezing.
Watering a lot with heat in the summer, good luck. 👍
How old (considering height) phoenix canary would you recommend without the leaves(or is it fronds?) Being hindrance for vehicles to move around as a mini R/A in front of a house. TYVM.
Do you mean what trunk height do I recommend to place this palm in the front garden, so that the leaves do not hinder passing traffic? Otherwise I don't understand your question correctly, sorry...😇 (google translate)
If that is your question, I recommend a Phoenix canariensis with at least 2 meters of trunk (6.6 feet). So that will be a Phoenix of about 25 years old...
@@Dimi.Exotic.Garden exactly 👍
Do you think a work around is to trim away the horizontal leaves and just maintain the vertical ones untill it reaches required (6ft) height ?
Sorry for bad English. Appreciate your response.
@@cravatenoire3269Yes, you can indeed do that 👍 Pruning green leaves is not ideal for the palm, but it is not a disaster. So yes, that is a solution. Try to only prune the leaves that are causing problems. The less pruning the better.
By the way, you can also write in your native language, I always have to translate everything with Google Translate so...😊

Nooit geweten dat voor Palms, hoe minder snoeien, hoe beter. Had gepland om alleen de oudere en buitenste te snoeien, omdat dit gewoonlijk de resterende bladeren, takken, vruchten, boomstam, enz. Verbetert
TYVM.
Never knew that For Palms, less the pruning the better. Had planned to prune only the older and outer as usually it improves remaining leaves, branches, fruits, tree trunk, etc
Amazing
Thanks 🙏😊
