Windmill Palm Tree – A Cold-Hardy Tropical Beauty

The Windmill Palm Tree (Trachycarpus fortunei) is the perfect solution for adding a tropical feel to your landscape, even in cooler climates. Unlike most palm trees, which thrive only in warm, humid regions, the Windmill Palm is one of the most cold-hardy palm species available. It can withstand temperatures as low as 5°F (-15°C), making it an excellent choice for homeowners in temperate zones who want to bring the look of the tropics to their backyard.

With its unique fan-shaped fronds, slender trunk, and minimal maintenance requirements, the Windmill Palm is an ideal addition to your garden, patio, or even indoors as a container plant.


Why You’ll Love the Windmill Palm Tree

  • One of the Hardiest Palm Trees – Can survive cold temperatures down to 5°F.
  • Tropical Appeal for Cooler Climates – Perfect for zones 7-11 but can grow in zone 6 with protection.
  • Compact & Space-Saving – Grows upright with a slim, textured trunk, making it ideal for small yards.
  • Low Maintenance & Pest Resistant – Requires minimal pruning and is naturally resistant to pests.
  • Versatile Growing Options – Can thrive in containers or be planted directly in the ground.
  • Drought Tolerant Once Established – Requires moderate watering but becomes highly drought-resistant as it matures.

A Unique Palm for Any Landscape

The Windmill Palm gets its name from its distinctive fan-like fronds that resemble the blades of a windmill. These elegant, deep green leaves grow in a symmetrical pattern, creating a striking focal point in any yard. The trunk is covered in a coarse, fibrous material that adds to its rugged beauty while helping it withstand harsh winter conditions.

Because of its compact size, typically growing between 10-30 feet tall with a slender 6-12 inch trunk, this palm fits well in a variety of landscape designs. Whether you’re looking to line a driveway, accentuate a patio, or create a tropical oasis in your backyard, the Windmill Palm is a fantastic choice.


Thrives in a Variety of Climates

Most palm trees require hot, humid conditions, but the Windmill Palm defies expectations. It is well-known for its ability to handle cold weather and can grow in areas where most other palms cannot. It is hardy in USDA Zones 7-11, and with some protection, it can even be grown in zone 6.

  • Zone 7-11 – Thrives outdoors year-round.
  • Zone 6 – Can survive with winter protection, such as mulching around the base and wrapping the trunk in burlap.
  • Indoors/Containers – Can be grown in pots and brought inside during the winter in colder regions.

If you live in the northern parts of the U.S. but have always wanted a palm tree, the Windmill Palm makes it possible!


Minimal Care for Maximum Impact

Sunlight & Soil

The Windmill Palm is adaptable to both full sun and partial shade, making it a flexible option for different yard conditions. It prefers well-draining soil, but it can tolerate various soil types, including sandy, loamy, or even slightly clay-heavy soils.

Watering Needs

Though it appreciates regular watering when young, the Windmill Palm is quite drought-tolerant once established. Water deeply once or twice a week until the tree matures, then reduce watering as needed.

Fertilization & Growth

Fertilizing once or twice a year with a balanced, slow-release palm fertilizer will help promote lush green fronds and steady growth.

Cold Protection

If you live in a colder zone, a layer of mulch around the base can help insulate the roots. Wrapping the trunk in burlap or frost cloth during extreme cold snaps can further protect your tree.

Pest & Disease Resistance

The Windmill Palm is highly resistant to pests and diseases, making it a low-maintenance choice for any homeowner. Unlike other palms that require frequent treatments, this one naturally resists most common palm problems.


Perfect for Homeowners & Landscapers Alike

The Windmill Palm is an excellent choice for both beginner gardeners and professional landscapers. Its easy care, striking appearance, and adaptability make it a favorite for:

✔ Home landscapes & gardens
✔ Poolside tropical settings
✔ Patios, decks & container planting
✔ Entryways & driveways
✔ Commercial properties & cityscapes

If you want to bring a touch of the tropics to your home without the hassle of high-maintenance palms, the Windmill Palm is the perfect tree for you. It’s one of the most cold-tolerant palms available, and with its elegant look, it’s sure to make a lasting impression.

Add the Windmill Palm to your landscape today and enjoy year-round tropical beauty—no matter where you live!

Excellent Reading for Real Estate Investors
This book is worth it's weight in gold! I've liked all of Kiyosaki's books and courses but this one really stands out. Mr. Kiyosaki has brought together some brilliant minds and what they wrote is easy to understand and makes absolute sense. As an investor specializing in lease options, I tried to do it all on my own and got 4 contracts but then they were not with motivated sellers. While reading this book, it became very clear to me the importance of having a team of people to help you out. My biggest take away is "Investing is a team sport." Yes, I know that's a 'no-brainer' but now I truly realize what he and the others who contributed are trying to say in this volume. Lately, I've switched over to specializing in tax deeds and liens and the chapter on lien investing by Mr. Wheelright is very good - he makes it very simple and easy to understand. I highly recommend this book. It is in the top 3 books on real estate investing that I've ever read, and I'm a book and seminar junkie. Get this book today!!

The Real Estate Book I Always Wanted
It is quite thick book but gets to the heart of the matter of real estate. Basically, it's about the challenges/successes of other real estate investors; how they recovered from their mistakes/failures and, are at the top of their game. I wanted to have this book in my investing library since I run my own real estate investment company. I'm nowhere near through reading it and am reading other real estate books simultaneously. The training is always ongoing b/c sometimes things change within this industry that may or may not affect how we do business. My husband and I were trained via Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Investor Program in late 2011. Since we can't work this business by ourselves, I assembled and hired a team of professionals (in 2 states) to work with since real estate investing is primarily a relationship business. You realize a higher rate of success using this book as a reference guide, learning from the mistakes of others in helping to achieve your goals.

I really appreciate the expertese
I gave this book a 5/5 due to the accumulated experience of the individuals within this compilation. Real Estate has many facets and this book, although not all encompassing for that would be nearly impossible, it does help make the "picture" more clear-that picture being where one ought to apply their efforts in becoming a great real estate practitioner. Very informative book, but just as any book, it takes work on the readers part to bring success to fruition.

Awesome Resource Book!
Format: Paperback
My daughter and I are about to embark her college applications. For the past 3 years I have tried to get my hands on a book that had everything I need in it in one place. My shelf is lined with college essay books and how-to-get-in books, but even though I could get snippets of info from these books, I grew frustrated that there wasn't one with all the info I was needing to do this application process confidently. Then I found this book. It could easily replace all the other books on my shelf! It starts off with info for 9th and 10th graders and getting organized for the next 4 years, but even if your child is already a senior like mine, its not too late to get this book. For those embarking on their high school trek, or those starting their apps, the information on taking APs, Honors and IB classes will either guide you through the next 4 years, or make you feel confident about the choices you've (hopefully) made thus far. You'll learn about extracurrics and what schools are looking for and how to prepare for the SAT/ACT and what to do if you already choked on them. The book then guides you through choosing the right college for you through rankings, costs and college visits. By page 171, it is time to jump into the water with both feet and start the process of actually applying. It guides you step by step. It would be difficult to miss anything with this book as your guide. I suppose one thing I like about this book is that it is written by the former Dean of Admissions at Stanford. This woman knows her stuff. The co-author is a journalist and mom who has been where you are right now. She gets that this whole thing is nerve-wracking and overwhelming. The book is filled with insight from admission reps all over the country from a variety of schools. Every chapter has input from reps that really tell you what it is they are looking for, what they like, what they don't like, and who appeals to them the most. I've had my book 2 weeks and it is already dog-eared and well broken in. It has given me a lot of comfort on those nights I begin to wonder if my kid even has a shot at any of the schools to which she is applying, and the answer is yes, she really does. This book is worth every penny!

Parent of 2 College Bound Sons - and This Book REALLY HELPS !!
Format: Paperback
This new text came highly recommended by our school guidance counselor - i think in part because she knows the authors and was a participant in its writing - but she was clear that she has no monetary gain involved in sales...They have also come to our school and spoken on the topics addressed here in this EXCELLENT BOOK. The whole process of getting our kids ready for college has become such a BIG DEAL and such a COMPETITIVE effort that is foreign from my days of applying myself (circa 1978) that where to start and where to go for useful and helpful advice is a real chore. As a parent knowing what is "the truth" and what is "nonsense" advice is not always easy to discern these days. There are a lot of folks out there with "helpful hints" and supposed means to "rig the game" but logically that doesn't inherently make sense and in reality is probably rarely even true. Unfortunately there are also a fair number of books out there selling that same message and I suspect it is how and why the college admissions process has become so seemingly insane. This book works on a number of levels - for parents it can get you to return to the world of "common sense" and get you to stop worrying and start supporting your kids a little more and in a better and more constructive way - as they find a place to go to college. For the college bound Jr or Senior the book can help them navigate the process and begin to take a level of ownership and mastery that they may not naturally gravitate to. All in all we have found the advice and the writing style of this EXCELLENT GUIDEBOOK warm, logical, upbeat and with a strong message of there being a college for everyone - and that being true to yourself and not trying to be what you aren't will serve you better in the long run - both in and out of college. Hard advice to not agree with. A welcomed volume on the shelf and a book we are definitely using this year and next. Now if we can just get both of the boys OUT OF THE HOUSE !!! Seriously,....worth the cost and worth the read.
