After taking a look at some of the smaller palm options for your pool in part 1 of our series on “Palms For Your Pool”, our experts at Big Tex Trees have now identified seven perfect medium sized palms for your pool.

Each palm below is vastly different than the next and when looking at the palms below remember to take into account the amount of space you will need as the palm continues to grow.

**Pygmy Date Palm **  
This statuesque palm features many trunks of varying height or it can be grown with just a single trunk. Great for small spaces and accent locations near your pool, the Pygmy Date Palm is a slower grower and adapts well to sun and shade. Moon Vlaley Nurseries' Pygmy Date Palms have been custom grown at our farms to ensure that the palm generates thicker trunks, fuller crowns, and more robust roots.

**Pineapple Palm**  
Named for its resemblance to a pineapple when the palm is younger, the Pineapple Palm produces wide fronds and requires space when planted around a pool. It grows slowly, eventually forming a wide trunk and its fronds begin to rise from the ground, creating a classic palm tree shape. The Pineapple Palm can handle the cold and loves the sun. It’s a popular choice for tropical landscape and is commonly seen around resorts.
