Here is a thought- leave the palms and plant Kudzu for shade. It worked wonders for erosion control in Miss. during the WPA days. And you should see it in the trees! :laugh:

Coz they are chit! And those washingtonia's and queen palms are the worst. I call them telegraph poles with chit ontop.

If ya was there now you'd be in for a palm slaying bonanza, open slather, push that article all the way to the bank. :rock:
