rainforests are can be used not only
to create stunning themes but as focal points for events. Due to the UK climate
there are a number of palms that thrive in the UK and our hire selection includes.
- Chinese Windmill Palms are probably the best-known palm in the UK due to their hardiness, hairy trunks and large fan like leaves.
- Canary Island Date Palm is quite rare in the UK and very striking due to its stunning very long leaf formation.
- Butterfly Palm a new addition, ideal for smaller interior spaces.
- The Kentia Palm is over used in interior landscaping and so not often considered but placed in the right space is a beautiful palm.
Palm trees are plants with un-branched trunks and large, evergreen leaf formations pinnate or palmate leaves (the leaf shape is characterised with the following:
- Pinnate leaves = having leaflets on each side of a common axis i.e. Canary Island Date Palm, Butterfly Palm, Kentia Palm
- Palmate leaves = having more than three leaflets arising from a common
point, often in the form of a fan) i.e. Chinese Windmill Palm, Dwarf Palm

Palms used to be symbols for concepts like peace, victory and fertility due to their importance in early civilization. There are over 2,500 species of palm trees worldwide existing in a vast array of habitats the majority are found in the rainforests and jungles located in the tropical regions (Central & South America, Africa, Asia) and sub tropical regions (which cover every continent except Antarctica).
