The Needle Palm Rhapidophyllum hystrix is a dwarf native palm with deep green, glossy fan shaped leaves. They grow very slowly to about 4 feet high. The Needle Palm usually forms a cluster of trunks which are armed with sharp spines 6-8” long. They can be grown in both sun and shade. Due to its small size the Needle Palm is a welcome addition to home landscapes. They are remarkably cold hardy surviving in such unlikely places as Knoxville, Tennessee and Alexandria, Virginia! The Needle Palm has moderate salt tolerance. Once they were rather difficult to obtain in nurseries, but now they are readily available. A great thing about the Needle Palm is its ability to grow in wet, damp areas.
