Royal palms have tall, slender trunks with a distinctive, smooth, light-gray bark, often with a green crownshaft near the top. Their feathery fronds form a beautiful canopy, giving any landscape a grand, tropical feel. The Veitchia palm is a smaller palm that typically grows to around 1020 feet in height, making it suitable for small gardens, patios, or indoor containers where larger palms wouldnt fit.
