Only arid palms such as a date palm or mediterranean palms could survive in Hargeisa. But the palm in question is a Coconut-like palm, very tropical and needs high humidity and low elevation as mahdi01 already said, impossible in Hargeisa. Common, that’s Biology 101

So the picture screams fake.

That palm was clearly planted there and appears to be barely established, if that. I have known palms that look like that to survive under far worse conditions than exist in Hargeisa. They would just require water until they get established.

I checked the list and still none of the mentioned palms look like the one in the first picture of this thread.

It looks like a Cuban Royal Palm, google the conditions it can survive. Not in Hargeisa...

Dawwa9,

That specimen is way immature, so difficult to identify. It also appears not to have been there long enough to say definitively that particular variety is going to survive. My point was that there are many varieties of palm that will survive in Hargeisa, if given a certain amount of care, especially in the beginning. Many palm species look like that when they are young.
