That is a great list of palms, Zig. It tells me you have a sizeable piece of property and are at least a zone 11. True? I have to pick palms that will take a little frost in the winter and my lot size is only an acre. I do have a Licuala grandis and a Hyophorbe lagenicaulis but both are in containers and well protected on cold nights. Here is my palm list:

I know they are not nearly as exotic as yours but I have to work within my boundries. I do grow lots of orchids but they are small enough to protect.
