Here's one growing in my neighborhood.. a plant this size is pretty expensive and all the rich folks here buy them.. they are easy to transplant (survivability) but they will rip your arms off if not careful (sharp!)

Here's what they look like if not trimmed back so severely

Stunted plant with bizarre leaf structure- leaves won't open up. Makes a great miniature palm, but not sure if will stay healthy (this is an old palm, though- only 2' tall). Santa Barbara, California in Lotus Land
