If you question a native Floridian or a long time habitat of Florida about palm trees and whether they have had them placed in their landscape or not you may be surprised.
Also, talk to a resident who has bought new landscaping from a landscaper.
You will find that soon many people are having to pay to dig out bushes and trees and plants because they over grow.
The landscaping that comes with our homes will live with moderate watering though the heat and the cold spells. If it gets disease, than you are not feeding it right. It becomes quite lovely in about eighteen months. Beware of landscapers trying to sell you stuff. Many of us have seen them come and go.
Also. There is enough water. We are doing fine with water. The developer and his ponds is a huge plus.
Oh. Y'all were talking about rats. Rats like palm fruit. Hide in bearded palms. Keep them away from your roof.
