There are two palms native to Texas. Sabal mexicana and sabal minor. Before being widely settled in the 18th and 19th centuries, the Lower Rio Grande River Valley had large groves of palm trees. A sanctuary containing some of these still exists. Be warned, some ill informed people believe all palm trees originated in Africa. If you see this kind of nonsense posted, recognize that you are dealing with someone who is ignorant of Texas plant life.

Some species of the palm tree are indeed native to Florida. Other species are native to California and various tropical areas. There are over 3,000 species of palm trees.

No not all palm trees are indigenous to California. The Washington filifera species of the palm tree originated in California.

Yes. Although many of the palms growing there now might be from other places.
