First, I wasn't "worried" about what others plant but rather it was a simple question to which many answered. Do what you wish to your own property. Secondly, many responded with the leaf issue being a problem which was beautifully answered by another poster. Yes I have seen Palmettos growing in Florida. I have one I fight back regularly (under my live oak) in Jacksonville. The type of palms folks plant here are not native to this area but if it gives you pleasure go for it.
