Project Palm

Project Palm Project Palm was created to build a photo database of all palm species contributed by our members.

Welcome to Project Palm, a Social Community for Palm Tree Enthusiasts around the World. Project Palm was created with one objective in mind: to build the first photo database of all species of palms using member photos, organized in a way that makes it easy to learn the appearance of, care for and enjoyment of the abundant palm tree species that grace our amazing planet!

Heterospathe elata var. elata
Sagisi Palm

This impressive specimen was photographed at Jardín Botánico de la Universidad de Puerto Rico in San Juan, one of the botanical gardens featured in our Where the Palms Are directory.

Native to parts of the western Pacific, this palm develops a graceful crown of arching, pinnate leaves atop a slender trunk—and makes quite a statement in this tropical garden setting.

📸 A big thank you to Dillon Forgues for sharing this photo! All palm photos on our website have been contributed by our members.

Hyphaene thebaica
Doum Palm

🌴 Wait…palms can BRANCH?!

If you picture a palm as a single trunk topped by a crown of leaves, take a look at this. And yes, that incredible branching is completely natural.

Unlike the familiar unbranched form of most palms, Hyphaene species are famous for repeatedly dividing their trunks, sometimes creating these extraordinary, almost sculptural specimens. Thanks so much to Tj Thomas for sharing this incredible photo!

Have you ever seen a branching palm before? 👇

And be honest…if you drove past this without knowing what it was, would you even guess it was a palm? 🌴

Copernicia alba
Caranday Palm

Unlike most of the other species of this genus, this species is native to South America. In its native habitat, this tall, solitary fan palm often forms extensive stands known as "palmares," creating some of the most impressive palm-dominated landscapes on the continent. It is quite popular in cultivation and is one of the species featured in this weekend's 'Buy One, Get One Free' promotion.

Pinanga bicolana
Bicol abiki

This is a small solitary understory palm with a slender trunk topped with a light green crownshaft. The crown holds five to six pinnate leaves with irregularly spaced leaflets that are dark green above and often display subtle mottling, as the one pictured below does. This species is endemic to lowland forests on the Bicol Peninsula on southern Luzon, Phillippines. It grows in shaded, humid understory conditions and remains extremely rare in cultivation.
We appreciate this wonderful photo shared by David Parker. All palm photos on our website have been shared by our members.

Visited a unique Christmas museum yesterday in Medina, OH, USA. It had some wonderful displays and movie artifacts. If you’re interested in Christmas all year long, this is for you!
They also had a great outdoor patio restaurant which caught my eye (for obvious reasons). Come for the Christmas stuff, stay for the palms!
