What extension agent? Lake and Sumter do not say the Queen palm won't live here. Every publication I have ever seen (based on science and not personal opinion) says Queens are fine in zone 9A.

Kind of realizing you have a personal vendetta against these palms, and I could show you facts from now till kingdom come Kitty, and it wouldn't matter... happy trails girl, this is a waste of my time.
