Homeowner wants two of his Royal palms out. Seed heads/flowering make too much a mess on his boats. I've been pruning the seeds heads for years and I hate it. Now he wants two whole palms removed. Small drop zone, no bucket truck or crane access. Any other palm, no problem, piece it out into the drop zone. Thing is, Royal palms are super hard and slick. It's like smooth cement. You have to slam a very sharp pole gaff into it and it barely penetrates the trunk. It leaves a tiny triangle imprint. Any suggestions?
