Chamaerops humilis Chamaerops humilis var. argentea Jubaea chilensis Rhapidophyllum hystrix Sabal minor Tithrinax campestris Trachycarpus fortunei
South-eastern part of Sweden, about 150m/164yd above sea level and about 10km/6mi from the sea: Summer temperatures seldom exceed 30°C/86°F, and periods with frost must be expected every winter. Temperatures below -10°C/14°F occur often. Temperatures between -15°C/5°F and -20°C/-4°F are to be expected occasionally. Temperatures below -20°C/-4°F will probably happen once or twice in a period of 30 years. Digging is always exciting, sometimes you will hit the solid rock, sometimes a pile of stones and sometimes just normal forest like soil. |
Why palms? Well... why not?
