Due to the sensitive and breakable nature of our products, it's understandable that damages may occur despite our meticulous packaging methods. If you find that your plant or pot has arrived in a less than satisfactory condition, please reach out to us at hello@plantsforallseasons.co.uk within a month of your delivery date. When contacting us, please provide your order reference, alongside a photo clearly showing the damaged item and its packaging, including the delivery label. We are committed to resolving such issues by offering a refund or a replacement, depending on the availability of the item in question.
We are unable to accept returns that are not related to damage because plants are inherently perishable and delicate. It's also worth noting that the plant you receive may slightly differ from the images displayed on our website. This variation is natural, given that each plant is unique and subject to seasonal growth changes.

Trachycarpus wagnerianus, commonly known as the Waggie Palm, is a rare and highly sought-after form of the Chusan palm (Trachycarpus fortunei), originally cultivated in Japan. Unlike its larger, more widely known cousin, T. wagnerianus is prized for its smaller, stiffer, wind-resistant leaves, making it an excellent choice for exposed gardens and modern landscapes.
Foliage: Compact, dark green fan-shaped leaves on short, sturdy petioles. The leaf segments are narrower and thicker than those of T. fortunei, giving the crown a neat, tidy look that stands up well to wind and weather.
Trunk: Develops a fibrous, hairy brown trunk, eventually reaching 3–4 metres high over many decades, though typically stays smaller and slower-growing than T. fortunei.
Hardiness: Extremely robust and cold-tolerant, hardy down to about -15°C, making it one of the best palms for UK gardens.
Growth habit: Naturally more compact and symmetrical, it has a refined, architectural form that works beautifully as a specimen or in groups.
Because of its elegant shape, manageable size and exceptional hardiness, Trachycarpus wagnerianus is ideal for coastal gardens, modern courtyards, or as a dramatic container palm.
Thrives in full sun to light shade.
Will tolerate more shade than many palms, but best growth and leaf colour are achieved with several hours of direct sun each day.
Unlike many palms, the Waggie’s stiff leaves mean it tolerates wind exceptionally well, even in coastal or exposed sites.
Water well during the first couple of years to establish deep roots.
Once established, moderately drought tolerant, though appreciates watering in prolonged dry spells.
Ensure good drainage — dislikes sitting in waterlogged soil.
Prefers free-draining, fertile soil, but is adaptable and copes well with a range of soils from sandy to heavier loams, provided they do not stay waterlogged.
Feed in spring and midsummer with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser or a specialist palm feed to encourage lush growth.
Very low maintenance.
Remove old, dead fronds by cutting close to the trunk to maintain a neat appearance.
Avoid cutting green fronds, as palms rely on them for photosynthesis.
Generally pest- and disease-free.
Very resilient compared to many other palms — problems are rare if planted in suitable conditions.
Excellent in large pots for patios, terraces and small gardens.
Use a free-draining, gritty compost, such as a mix of multi-purpose compost with added horticultural grit or perlite.
Raise containers on feet to aid drainage and protect roots in winter with a mulch or fleece wrap in very cold regions.
