We feel lucky in that we mostly like what they put in front and on the side patio of our CYV. We have added a lot, but only pulled out a little - but we did pull out some - not the case everywhere.
We removed our three, they were a pain in the a**!...Constantly triming, which is usually $100 a trip and roaches love them....Bye-bye palm tree!
