Do you want to know what palms to plant? Plant what the Developer plants. They employ experts to choose tree and plant varieties which require less maintenance, less water, and are weather tolerant for this area. Plant varieties that you like or those “peddled” by local stores or nurseries at your own risk.

Sorry, Kahuna, but I feel the need to correct you.

The developer does NOT employ "experts" to choose Villages' landscaping. He employs companies who will do the job cheaply! Case in point . . . look at all the Queen palms all over the place. Notice I mentioned that earlier in this thread (see Item #4). They are a no-no here!

In many villages, they planted the wrong grass because it was cheaper, not better, and now they have gone back to St. Augustine grass. I could go on, but won't.
