Tina,

Coconut palm grows to 40-60 feet tall but may be a little cold tender for your area in some years. I suggest you contact your local County Extension Office to confirm its adaptability to your area.

The following web site provides information on the best palms for central Florida, the way to plant them and how to care for them.
