I assure you, we are not imagining the long palm fronds and other debris that we pick up after heavy winds and/or storms. I DO resent, which is my prerogative, having to clean up this mess from trees not on our property. I don't have a 'yard man' but would be happy to have you come over. May I suggest you PM your name and phone number so, after the next storm, I can call you so you can come over and clean up. I'll leave the gate open. Thanking you in advance for knowing more about my situation than my husband or I do.

PS TV landscape workers told us that they are called PETTICOAT palms so if you don't want them called that, perhaps you should contact TV and register your complaint.
To be honest, I would just throw all the rubbish back over the wall, and let TV maintainance clear up.
Their trees, their problem!
