[quote=flu]I’ll consider them too. I was contemplating changing the landscaping and going complely with palms…But I’m finding out palms are incredibly expensive if you buy a full grown tree..Plus, they don’t seem as sturdy as I’d like.[/quote]
Yes they are expensive, mainly due to the fact that it take them forever to grow. If you plan to stay in the house for awhile, you can always buy the small one and grow it yourself. I have a neighbor who have palms all around his house and he planted them from seed, ~10 years ago. They’re about 2 stories high now.
