We had 9 queens put around our home 17 years ago.
We wanted that "tropical look/feel".
Fast forward....big mistake. Very dirty....large seed pods that open several times per year flowering and huge berries all over the place.
Need cleaning out at least twice per year at $25-$50 per palm.....price goes up as tree gets taller.
We are now down to having only 5 left.....they are approaching 25-30 feet tall. They will all be gone before this year ends.
There are less problematic palms to be had.....the only thing cheap about a queen palm is the initial purchase!!!!
