General
Features
Virtually Maintenance Free
No water, pesticides, or trimming are ever required.
The occasional dusting is all that is needed.
Appear identical to living
plants
Being made from the actual plant, the authenticity
of these plants is astounding. The fronds and
trunks of living plants have been preserved using
our patented process, ensuring a natual beauty
that can never be replicated by any faux plant.
No one will know they are preserved unless you
tell them.
Custom Design
We can custom build and design our palms to suit
your project and overall shape requirements. Our
palms range from 5 to 60 ft., and come in single
or multi curved clusters. If special engineering
is required, our palms can be seismically and
structurally engineered upon request.
Competitively priced to high
quality silk and living plants
Forever Preserved™ palms and plants save
you maintenance and replacement dollars. They
also provide considerable savings in hidden costs
when dealing with living or silk plants. Contact
us for more information.
Ideal for Locations with
Little or No Light
Our palms and plants have no need for natural
or artifical light, other than to view their lush
green foliage.
Lightweight and Easy to Install
All components come in separate corrugated cartons.
The average weight per palm trunk is 7 to 9 lbs.
per foot. Click here to download

How
we do it - The making of a preserved palm
 The
Phoenix and Washingtonia palm fronds and bark
components are harvested from our harvesting facility
(210 acres of company owned land) in Borrego Springs,
Ca. This facility contains over 100,000 trees.
The fronds are carefully taken from the live trees,
then internally treated with our proprietary organic
formula. Each frond will remain preserved for
anywhere from 4 to 6 years, and all fronds include
internal fire retardant which has been tested
and approved by the California State Fire Marshal
for products identified in sections 13115, California
Health and Safety Code.
The bark, which is also harvested,
is then carefully assembled onto a PVC pipe in
a manner that mimics the way a live palm grows.
The bark is not preserved in any way. It is hand
built (piece by piece) on to a PVC pipe with steel
interior and backfilled with high-density foam.
The top of every trunk has a steel receiver head
with receptacles (holes) used to insert and support
the preserved fronds. Every receiver head is custom
built with up to 45 receptacles. Our clients have
the option to choose the amount of fronds (anywhere
from 25 to 45) to be used for each receiver head,
depending on the overall look desired.
 Finally
a steel base plate receiver with a protruding
steel center pipe (anywhere from 2 to 5 feet)
is specially built to slide the trunk into as
a support system. For taller palms, these base
plates can be directly bolted to a concrete floor.
If special engineering is required our palms can
be seismically and structurally engineered. In
addition, electrical conduit pipes can be added
within our trunks for special effect lighting,
security cameras or speakers which can easily
be mounted at th top of the palm. We custom build
our palms anywhere from 5 to 60 ft. and have installation
specialists available for projects worldwide.
