Yea, Pindo Palms are extremly hardy and grow VERY fast. The problem with Pindo Palms is that if you end up with a female tree you're going to have a huge mess with what is the equivilent to a female being on the rag for a palm tree.

If not, don't plant the tree near the house or close to a door.
Here's an example of what you have to look forward to....
