Palm Tree

A palm tree, a tree-like plant, as grows by the sea. Depicted as a palm tree with long, green, feather-like leaves and a tall, brown, segmented trunk.

May be used to represent beaches, tropical climates and cultures, summer fun, and vacations (holidays). As such, this emoji tends to spike in popularity during the summer months.

Vendors implement a similar tree in their 🏝️ Desert Island.

Microsoft’s palm tree bears coconuts, as Samsung’s previously did. Apple’s palm tree previously had more erect palms.

During the summer of 2024 this emoji became associated with then-Vice President of the Untied States Kamala Harris, referencing a viral clip of a speech made in May 2023 where she stated: "You think you just fell out of a coconut tree? You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you.”

Palm Tree was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
