Default 100 ft is about right

I have seen some over 100 but usually never the case.

Default Florida royals are magnificent to look at when they are lined up

I visited Florida a couple of years ago and went to an old friends house and was astonished at his entrance as i dove up his driveway. It was something out of a movie, even though his house was nothing to brag about, but the entrance made the visit to his home that much better. The trees he had were about 40 ft high, but he had at least 6 or 7 on each side up the driveway... Definitely Florida nature at its finest...

Default I have never seen a very tall florida royal

But RPT has an index that can help you out and tell you a guesstimate on how tall the Florida Royal grows..

Default I am interested in the Royal Palm

Is there a difference between the Cuban Royal and the Florida Royal? If so which one would be better for Phoenix. I want to put some out near the front wall of my home. About 10 royals, five on each side of the front entrance. The plan is to create a wall of foilage above my already existing concrete wall. That brings me to the next question which is , when they grow should I plant them far from the wall? because the roots will break the wall up as it matures... thank you for any help

Dave
