The map at http://bonap.org/2015_SpecialtyMaps/Density%20Gradient%202015/original/2tax22_Palms.png suggests that Arkansas should be added and Nevada and Maryland removed.

Found out Nevada has planted trees along with Maryland. I never knew Arkansas had wild palms.

They are actually palmetto trees not the tall variety that most people think of as palm trees. At least that's all I've ever seen there.

Are you using obvious as a verb? If so then I'd have to disagree and say he is not obviousing correctly.

If you hadn't added the native criteria, goofballs would be crying about the potted palm in the Juneau bank lobby.

To be fair, that's a pretty great plant. Really sets the tone for a customer-based, results-oriented operation with service you can trust.
