The Guadalupe palm (Brahea edulis) is a graceful and hardy palm species native to Guadalupe Island off the coast of Baja California, Mexico. Known for its stout trunk and elegant crown of fan-shaped, deep green leaves, this palm adds a classic tropical look to landscapes while being surprisingly drought-tolerant.
One of the most appealing features of the Guadalupe palm is its resilience. It can withstand heat, wind, and periods of drought, making it an excellent choice for water-wise gardening. In addition to its durability, the palm produces small, edible black fruits that were once an important food source for people and wildlife on its native island. Though it’s considered a rare species in the wild due to overgrazing by non-native animals, the Guadalupe palm is now cultivated and appreciated in many parts of the world for its beauty, strength, and adaptability.
