If you want to break the monotony of traditional northern greenery and add a lush, exotic touch to your terrace or yard, this is your chance.<\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"8\">Why is this choice even possible in Estonia?<\/h3>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\">It sounds like a myth, but it is pure biology. <i data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"47\">Trachycarpus fortunei<\/i> is one of the hardiest palm species in the world.<\/p>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"10\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Natural Frost Resistance:<\/b> Originating from the high-altitude, mountainous regions of Asia, these palms are naturally adapted to cold winds and snow.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Thrives in Our Climate:<\/b> A mature, well-established Windmill palm can withstand short-term winter temperatures down to -15 \u00b0C.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"10,2,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"10,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Perfect for Container Gardening:<\/b> Because they grow beautifully in pots, you can keep them on your sunny terrace from April to November. When the harsh winter deepens, you simply move the pot into a cool, unheated garage, shed, or winter garden.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 data-path-to-node=\"11\">Simple Care Tips for Your Windmill Palm<\/h2>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"12\">To keep your palm healthy and green year after year, follow these three basic rules:<\/p>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"13\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">The Right Spot:<\/b> Place your palm in a sunny or partially shaded area. Protect it from constant, harsh northern winds if possible.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"13,1,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"13,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Smart Watering:<\/b> Water regularly so the soil stays moist, but ensure the pot has excellent drainage. Palms hate standing water.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"13,2,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"13,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Winter Protection:<\/b> When grown in pots, simply move the palm into a cool, unheated room (like a garage or shed) during the coldest winter weeks. If planted in the ground, younger palms need a thick layer of mulch around the base and a breathable winter wrap.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 data-path-to-node=\"15\">Visit Palgisalu Garden Center and Take Your Palm Home<\/h2>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"16\">Ready to add a tropical element to your home?
