Custom Artificial King Palm Tree for Plazas & Streetscapes
Application: Plazas & Streetscapes · Custom heights 4–8 m
We build custom artificial king palms for plazas and streetscapes — 4–8 m specimens, NFPA 701 fire-retardant treatment available as an option, engineered per project. Streetscape trees face wind, pollution and public contact year-round. We build UV-stabilised, salt-air safe specimens engineered for exterior wind load and documented per project.
- Wind-load rated steel core, engineered per site
- UV-treated fronds · 3–5 year outdoor color-fastness
- Numbered fronds and marked trunk joints for site assembly

Installation, materials & documentation
High-footfall schemes are engineered for bump contact: planter edges are chamfered, lower branch rings are fixed rather than free-hanging, and the crown is kept clear of sprinkler envelopes and wayfinding lines.
Large specimens are delivered knock-down with a rigging sequence and a lift plan for the contractor; the fire pack is formatted for a venue review committee that clears many decorative installations in one pass.

Ordering & Specification FAQs
What buyers ask when specifying king palms for plazas and streetscapes — MOQ, lead time and this venue's requirements.
MOQ is project-based rather than per-SKU, and for king palms a single 4–8 m specimen is a realistic starting order — the canopy is fixed at 2.5–4 m unless you ask for a different crown. Quotation is built per tree and per project, so a single replacement palm and a full concourse scheme are both quoted the same way.
25–35 days for standard builds, and 45–60 days for custom builds. Lead time starts from approved drawings rather than from the enquiry. Crowns and trunks are packed separately and fronds are numbered for site assembly, so the assembly sequence has to be agreed with your crew before shipment.
Yes. Exterior builds are engineered against your project's wind load and documented per project, not sold with a generic outdoor label.
Direct-bolt anchoring into the pavement or a concealed planter base, with the method drawn for your structural engineer.
Yes — 4–8 m, with the crown built to read correctly from upper floors and the fronds numbered at the factory so your crew can assemble the tree inside a finished building. Trunk finish, frond density and the base method are all drawn against your project; send the venue drawing and we return CAD options within 12 business hours.
