Why Are There No Phoenix Canariensis (canary Island Date Palm) In The Crimea?
October 23rd, 2009 Jeff The Phoenix Canariensis (Canary Island Date Palm) is very widely cultivated along the shores of the south eastern Black Sea coast, particularly in Sochi (Russia), Abkhazia and in Adjara (Georgia). In Gagra and Sukhumi in Abkhazia, they’ve been planted in nearly every street corner and absolutely thrive, many having grown to enormous heights.
However, I visited the Crimea in Ukraine’s Black Sea coast last year and didn’t see any of them there. I found this odd, as the native flora/fauna is very Mediterranean-like and the average annual temperature is certainly mild enough for them to grow, with much warmer summers than the south of England where a few of them have been successfully cultivated (Tresco, Devon, even in London). So why have none of them been cultivated in the Crimea? Does anybody know why?
