I think Europeans are great, but more bushy than tall.
Windmills are beautiful, though tend to be a shorter tree (max 15 feet).
A Sabal is very pretty and it's florida's state tree.

S.McGowan Landscape & Design - Home has this and more.
a decent palm tree, installed, should run you $500.

you can pay more or less, depending on size and how you shop it.
I've done all the palms, twice! PM if you want to chat more.
You really think a pindo is to big for a patio villa??? I am thinking of getting one and was told by 2 landscapers they will only get about 15 to 20 feet tall and have a girth of about 8 to 10 feet. I was thinking of getting one that is 6 feet tall and they said that because they grow slow it will be a long time before they get fully grown. Are they feeding a line bull to make the sale? love to hear comments.
