    Can I please get some assistance on identifying this palm? I just moved to Jacksonville, FL and I have 3 palms in my yard. As this is our first house, I've never had to take care of palms before so I'm not quite sure what to do. This is the palm in the front of my yard that I need identifying. I have another one just like this on the side of my house and a different one in the back.
