It's been four years since I took out the lawn and installed a bunch of small palms in my "bulletproof bed" - the first thing you see as you drive in to my driveway. I made sure to plant it with palms that look good year-round and don't yellow during either the summer or the winter. It's full of Ravenea rivularis, Ravenea glauca, Rhopalostylis, Chambeyronia, Dypsis decipiens, Dypsis onilahensis, and Dypsis leptichelos.

They're all big enough now that I'm ready to plants some more, preferably 1-2 gallon palms underneath. Anyone who has a bunch of tiny stuff that would be good for this type of palm bed, and is ready to go in the ground, please let me know. Here are some pics to give an idea of what the palm bed looks like.
