One of the reasons we bought our new house in SC last summer was because of the palm trees in the front yard. We grew up in CT and the thought of having our very own palm trees was intoxicating!!! But we still haven't learned much about them (it's on the list!!!). Hubby just noticed these very strange things (he likens them to torpedos) growing up amongst the fronds. What are these oddities and what should we expect of them? They're so STRANGE looking, and they're increasing our fascination with palm trees!!!!!!!
