I had professionals remove a 16 year old Palm Tree. I loved the tree ,but it was just in the wrong place next to my utilities and I was afraid that the roots would short out my underground electrical service wires. I tried doing it myself, but after climbing up my 24' ladder to cut the fans and getting cut to pieces by the razor sharp barbs, I realized that I could be seriously hurt if not killed.
It took them 3 hours and I wanted the video cut down to 5 min so there was a lot cut.
I bought 3 of these trees in a pot and planted 2 in my back yard. I could not make up my mind where to put the third so I just temporarily planted it where it was until I could decide. I don't know what happened but this tree grew over 30 ft while the other 2 are only 6 ft after all these years
Note: the 1st part was done with a Canon A630, but I was having color troubles and switched to a JVC Everio. I was leaning up against a car to hold the cameras steady, but the temp was 107 deg F and the car got too hot to touch
