We have a beautiful Sylvester palm in our front yard. Neighbors love it and as they say “it’s Florida”! There is maintenance cost, as others have pointed out, but palms are good for the landscaping economy. That said, if I had a “do over” , I would go with a couple of Sabal palms - less maintenance and native to Central Florida. Good luck.
