If people disappeared for just a short while, among the first things to die in LA would be the Palm Trees which would dry up and blow away; they are NOT native trees.
LA is broiling hot and as dry as a desert...my last Summer visit had me walking around with a bloody nose and eyes as dry as a dust storm.
No thanks.
I have a terrific suggestion for those who like LA...move there?
that's the only place I have seen them in ny, even tho this question is like asking if you wished ny had warmer weather all year. smh..
I thought the title of this thread was "Do You Wish New York City Had Palm Trees?"
Anyhoo..... since I already have a Windmill Palm planted in my patio for the past 4 years and it's doing fabulous.....I'm also hoping to plant one at my local community garden, "La Roca", on Elton Avenue on 160th Street. I've already planted, 4 years ago, a Dawn Redwood Tree at my local community garden, "Rincon Criollo", on Brook Avenue and 157th street and it's now HUGE, healthy, and beautiful!

I hate everything about LA aside from the weather. The weather seems mad nice. But everything else about LA is horrible. The plastic surgeries, the smog, the crime, the lack of reliable public transportation. LA is like a girl with 10/10 looks but the worst personality in the world
As a native of a place that has palm trees, the answer is No.
Palm trees are beautiful...and placing them in a vicinity where there is >99% chance that it will be desecrated (via urine, human feces, spit, vomit, and the all popular dog feces, litter, etc) is just wrong.
Palm trees are pretty useless, especially the types that were imported to LA. They require a lot of water, they don't provide any popular fruit and don't provide any shade.
Absolutely useless.
Also, count me as one of those who prefer the northeast seasons. It never really feels like Thanksgiving or Christmas when the weather never changes.
