Medjool Date Palms / Phoenix dactylifera / Florida Dac

A Quality Plant, a wholesale Nursery and Tree Farm, delivered these two Florida Grown Medjool Date Palms to North Miami for installation at the entrance to a residential property.

The True Date Palms or Medjools, were trimmed with a diamond cut and matched very nicely. The customer was very happy with the date palms and A Quality Plant went on to make two other deliveries that day.
