I wrote in another thread that I'm not a big fan of palms, though I have a few. In general, I don't find them all that attractive, though I like cases where they line driveways or streets, etc. I mentioned in the other thread that my dad's Mexican fan palms have got too tall and are a pain to trim at that height and the only way to shorten them is to cut them down. They are about 38 years old. At least I can spot his home from my home five miles away.
