Elimination of Palm Trees

You wonder why palm trees are not being replaced? Look no further than here. See what the City has to go through once they're grown to keep them alive: patches!

Also, I just wanted to clarify that though palm trees may not be replaced when removed per new policies of the City, it doesn't mean they're "illegal" or will be removed. It'll be decades, if not longer, before (if) palm trees are ever eliminated from the landscape of Los Angeles.

"Patches? We don't need no...." Ah, you know the line.

Is it patching or an attempt to cover over graffiti?

That is insane!! I had no idea that there were concrete patches on palm trees. Are they for structural support as well as cosmetic reasons?
