We have had palms at our other houses and have watched all of these varieties... they all differ in care and ability to handle the environment.

Just because you wouldn't doesn't mean you need to rant on everyone else's wishes, or are you the guy that's always flipping me off in the roundabouts???

maybe when TV gets off their behind and trims these palms with "skirts" the way they should be, then you can rant.... until then blah
No idea why you felt the need for your rant; yours is definitely unjustified. Ozello is pretty much right on the money when he makes a botanical comment, unlike what you are spewing. The care of different varieties of palms does NOT differ that much in the care they all require, if at all.

You are way off regarding the palm skirts to which you refer. They are Washingtonia palms and they are supposed to have skirts and NOT be trimmed. So much for your palm knowledge credentials!

N. B. Did you ever consider that perhaps you deserve to be flipped??!?
