Der Palmenwald von Elche in Spanien, T. Amersberger
Abstract: The Palmeral of Elche (Spain) represents the largest planting
of Phoenix dactylifera L. in Europe. It displays both, an unique palm vegetation
and a historic human heritage site, dating back some 2500–3000 years
and presenting a palm grove with very peculiar characteristics regarding
practices, pests, uses and socio-economic context. Although the climate is

the mild Mediterranean climate and the use of Phoenix hybrids offer factors
