A towering palm tree may make a yard appear very different. It makes the area look taller, gives it a polished look, and makes it look like the typical Arizona landscape design in no time. If you are thinking of installing a palm tree, read on to learn more!
Average Cost of a 20-Foot Palm Tree
In 2026, a 20-foot palm tree in Arizona costs between $500 and $2,000 with the cost rising to between $1,5000 and $4,500 for delivery and installation.
What Makes the Price Go Up?
The kind of palm matters. Some types are more common and less expensive, while others grow more slowly or are difficult to move, which makes them more expensive.
Delivery and handling are also highly important. It requires the necessary tools and knowledge to securely move a big palm tree. This is especially true if the planting location is in a backyard or another hard-to-reach place.
Site preparation is another thing to think about. The hole for planting needs to be the appropriate size, the soil may need to be changed, and the watering schedule may need to be changed so that the tree gets the right quantity of water as it grows.
Installation Matters More Than Many People Think
Putting a full-grown palm in the ground is not the same as putting a little tree in a pot. How you treat the root ball, how deep you plant it, and how often you water it in the first few weeks all have a huge effect on how well the tree settles in.
A palm tree may have trouble growing roots if it is planted too deeply or not watered enough. That can cause stress, slow growth, or even death of the tree.
The Long-Term Value of Mature Palms
One of the best things about putting in a 20-foot palm is how it looks right away. A mature palm tree gives you shade, structure, and a finished look right away, instead of having to wait years for a smaller tree to grow.
When properly watered and cared for, palms also do well in Arizona’s weather. Once they are established, several species can handle dry conditions and don’t need as much care as certain classic landscaping trees.
Mature palms are still a popular choice for homeowners who want to improve their outside areas, define their entryways, or make their house feel like a resort.
Planning Your Landscape Improvement
There is more to finding the appropriate palm tree than just its height. Placement, soil conditions, light exposure, and watering all affect how well plants do in the long run. Getting guidance before you buy might help you choose a tree that works with your yard and your budget.
