We like Queen Palms (Arecastrum romanzoffianum) and have planted about 10

of
them over the years. Do not confuse with King Palms or Washington Palms.

They grow only 20-25 feet tall and 10-15 feet wide. Elegant, airy,

tropical
appearance. No maintenance.




They are indeed beautiful- but I wouldn't call mine low maintenance!
Between the fruit mess and the retained fronds, I'm replacing all mine with
Foxtails, Carpentaria, or Veitchia- even Solitaires are preferable.
