They are totally ugly compared to other palms, when did they become the state tree?

We are talking about a tree aren't we?

The xenophobic comments are ridiculous-let's stick to the topic. Florida is a trade hub between the U.S. and much of the world. Regardless of "immigrants" bringing the "pests" in, it probably came from containers, etc.
But whatever.. Anyway, I grew up in Fl. and like the tree. I've talked with some people not from here that don't like it but to each is his own. |

I'll bet that UF has enough money for football though, right?
