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.

How do you question a "long time habitat about palm trees" and what is the surprise?
What would a resident say if they bought new landscaping from a landscaper?
Very few people have to dig out trees, etc., because they "over grow."
Plants get diseases because of many different reasons but not "feeding them right" is not one of the causes.
"Beware of landscapers trying to sell you stuff?" That's their profession and that's how they earn a living.
Not all rats like or eat "palm fruit."
