Palm tree varieties suited to Tunisia

What makes a palm tree suited to the Tunisian climate

  • Good tolerance to heat and summer drought
  • Decent resistance to wind, common along the coast
  • Adaptation to the country's sometimes chalky soils
  • Limited maintenance needs once well established
