Palma Model 3D

Phoenix canariensis palm The Canary Island endemic palm tree Phoenix canariensis is a distinct member of the genus, even from other Macaronesian endemics such as Phoenix atlantica. It is also known to be able to hybridise naturally with Phoenix dactilifera that was introduced and is widespread in the Canary Islands (Gonzalez-Perez et al., 2004), and thus it may also hybridise with other species. Description P. canariensis is a large palm up to 18 m tall, with a thick erect trunk up to 1.2 m in diameter and a crown occupying the upper 2.5-4.5 m. Leaves up to 1.5-1.8 m long are alternate and pinnately compound, containing lanceolate leaflets 30-45 cm long with sharp spines 5-8 cm long on the lower half of the petiole. Flowers creamy yellow-white and open from a husk-like structure that appears periodically throughout the year, being dioecious with both males and female flowers occurring on dense, hanging bunches, though on separate trees. Fruit is an orange-brown to dark purple fleshy drupe, elliptical and 1-3 cm long, occurring in hanging clusters, each containing a single large seed.
