Fan palm tree, also known as Washingtonia or Mexican fan palm, is a striking ornamental tree characterized by its large, fan-shaped leaves and tall, slender trunk. Native to desert regions of North America, it thrives in hot, dry climates and is often used in landscaping for its tropical appearance. The tree can grow up to 80 feet tall and produces clusters of small, white flowers that eventually turn into black dates. Its unique, visually appealing structure makes it a popular choice for both residential and commercial landscapes.
