About this collection
Statement Palms for Urban Entrances in Dubai
An entrance palm has to hold a forecourt on its own and be read from a car at speed, which favours strong crown geometry over fine texture. Copernicia, Hyophorbe, Livistona, Phoenix, Archontophoenix, Pritchardia martii, Veitchia merrillii, Beaucarnea gracilis, Rhapis excelsa and Pseudophoenix sargentii cover the range from monumental to intimate.
Entrances almost always need matched pairs or matched runs, and matching palms is a selection exercise carried out in the nursery, not a specification that can be written and assumed. Plan to inspect or to receive photographs. See palms for Dubai luxury landscapes for the wider ornamental range and palms for resort landscaping for destination scale work. For the wider commercial plaza brief rather than the hotel or villa forecourt, see statement palms for plazas.
