Spring is almost here, but if you’re ready to add some summery botanical flair to your home, you might want to invest in a palm tree. With their bright green leaves, these plants instantly evoke a feeling of ease on the beach. And if you’re a Costco member, you can score a giant palm tree at the retailer for just $47.99.
TikToker @spottedatcostco shared the discovery in a recent video, writing, “Herb dad season is in full swing at Costco.”
They explained that the plant is a queen palm and that a similar variety of palm – known as phoenix roebelenii – is also available for $39.99.
“Jealous!” one commenter wrote. “There are no palm trees in the Midwest 😂.”
“Wow great price,” commented another.
Queen palms do best when they receive full sunlight and are planted in sandy, acidic soils. Watering an adult plant a few times a week in summer and winter should be enough, so be careful not to overwater it! And if you’re a pet parent, you’ll be happy to know that palm trees are non-toxic to cats and dogs.
Stunning on their own or as part of your larger plant family, palm trees add a tropical touch to any space. You can pick it up now while it’s only $47.99 at Costco. If you’re not near a Costco, you can find a similar palm on Amazon for $48.99.
Amazon palms are slightly smaller at three to four feet, making them a good alternative if you’d rather start smaller.
