I am getting ready to landscape my backyard, and at the Nursery they have palms that are $11.00 dollars but they are smaller sizes... Then they have the bigger ones for more money. What I was wondering how fast do these palms grow in Florida? I wouldn't mind buying a bunch of the small ones if it takes a year to catch up to the $35.00 dollar ones that are bigger? Is it a foot a year or something?

I don't know about the Christmas Palm, but most palms are slow growers. I would venture a guess of three years. Ask the experts at the nursery center.

You didn't state where you are in Florida (it's a BIG state) so it's hard to say. In South Florida (Miami), a Christmas Palm should grow as much as 2-3 feet per year - closer to two is more normal with regular watering and a moderate winter.
