@BigJT2010 It is true. I have always loved palms since my childhood and I actually have a palm nursery and I ship my home grown palms world wide. By the way, I live on the west coast of Canada.. There are a lot of palms where I live.

@BananaJSSI to each his own but i cant stand them. ive planted many euro fan palms and queen palms working landscaping and they all just seem to need too much attention. and there are so many little palms in camden county you can find certain areas its just acres of nothing but palms. they can make a simple hunting trip or stroll through the woods a full body workout ha

@BigJT2010 I don't like sand gnats and I really dislike high humidity, but I do love Palm Trees. Our son lives near Brownsville, Texas and it gets pretty hot & humid down there as well.

@bj616 good? naw. just high humidity and sand gnats. the only good the palms do is attracting rattlesnakes
