Plant
a Palm (Pty) Ltd
www.plantapalm.co.za
Through
the group’s direct involvement over many years in
growing and selling plants, and more specifically as one
of the world’s leading growers and suppliers of specimen
palms, the Evergreen Group recognises the fact that palm
trees are associated worldwide with a tropical, peaceful
and relaxed environment. Thus,
the requirement of so many home owners to have a number
of palms in close proximity to their pool.
Palm
trees are also used the world over as the finishing touch
to office-parks.Sometimes as few as two specimen palm trees
can provide a stately, upmarket look and feel to business
premises.
This
worldwide perspective translates into the fact that ‘everyone
wants a palm’.
However,
while most people prefer an ‘instant palm’,
they simply do not have the necessary time or expertise
to undertake the time-consuming exercise of locating a suitable
palm, based on hardiness, planting area available, location
(geographic and exposure to the elements) and site access,
followed by the requirements of specialised transport, lifting
equipment and correct planting procedures for the palm.
As a
result of the many requests received over the years, Plant
a Palm (Pty) Ltd was born as a standalone member of the
Evergreen Group, in order to offer home owners and businesses
a ‘turnkey’ solution to owning a palm.
