Pitt Island Nikau, Chatham Island Nikau
Rhopalostylis sapida
The Pitt Island Nikau is fast becoming one of our most popular palms. Originating from Pitt Island (Chatham Islands), this variety of Nikau adapts incredibly well to the Auckland climate. Our Pitt Island Nikau's are all grown from seed and sourced from our own mature in ground specimens.
Because of the specific growing system we use, these Nikau tolerant full sun, high wind, cold temperatures & coastal conditions making them ideal for any garden. We see at least 3x faster growth rates compared with the mainland Nikau, and our Pitt Island variety are much hardier.
Our mature in-ground specimens are some of the most impressive & spectacular examples of the Nikau around, so if you are looking for the best Pitt Island Nikaus for your garden visit us today.
