That and a Euphorbia! Harry

The euphorbia is a kitten in comparison to those monsters.

They can be a nice screening palm for a corner, or square or round spot.   But around here they should get early, aggressive and frequent pruning to stay in check.  They seem to like richer soil and fertilizer and wet spots, to look their best.  They are often yellow and ratty around here.  

Those are gorgeous. When I see them in Florida, they're usually green-yellow. Probably b/c they're in full sun in a dry spot.

Those are in half day sun and blasted by irrigation heads at a hotel here.   In a regular person’s yard, in a dry spot with little care, they tend to looked yellowed and not great, even though they are natives.

Yes, that place has like 100+ coconuts scattered around.  They are a common yard tree in these parts.

How do you find them as garden specimens,  dropping all those coconuts I certainly wouldn’t be doing a lot of weeding under one that’s for sure. Is there an element of danger you feel.
