Answer
Jeri,

Sorry.  I' ve never done anything with palms.  They just don't like Portland.

Here's a sight that might help:
http://www.palm-tree.net/palm-tree-selecting.htm

At the end is a list of about 20 palm species that gives pretty good descriptions what you can expect from them.

For what it's worth.
