Bismarkia nobilis
Bismark Palm, Bismarck Palm
The Bismark Palm is one of the most imposing and majestic of all palm trees. It has enormous presence – the huge, bright glaucous silver palmate leaves, held stiffly in the crown, just demand attention. Because of their high light requirements, Bismarkia nobilis palms are better suited to growing in a conservatory, where they are reasonably tolerant of a dry atmosphere as long as air movement is good. Or better still accommodated under the high roof of an atrium, where they can be left to mature for many years.

Care & Size Guidance
Select a well-draining potting mix with good organic content for your Bismarck Palm. Place it in a location with as much direct sunlight as possible, as these palms thrive in such conditions. Allow the top inch or so of soil to dry out before watering, ensuring not to overwater to prevent root rot.
Fertilise the palm during the growing season (spring through early autumn) using a balanced, slow-release indoor plant fertiliser. Pruning requirements are minimal; simply trim away any dead or damaged fronds as needed.
Bismarck Palms are generally resistant to pests and diseases indoors, requiring minimal intervention. Ensure your indoor space remains at a comfortable temperature for the palm, as it can be sensitive to cold drafts. With proper care, your indoor Bismarck Palm will flourish, adding a touch of the tropics to your living space.
Although this palm does have some cold hardiness, we don’t recommend it as a permanent outdoor plant as it can only take very brief dips down to around freezing. It does however make a great potted plant to keep on the patio from May-September, but be sure to bring it indoors over winter.
