How?

If you decide to get one, you would also need adequate space so that a plant can survive there. If you actually do not want to buy a palm tree, you can easily rent one in the following areas: Long Island, NYC, CT, MS, and the entire Tri-State area. They are usually rent for parties and some special events, like weddings, etc. so that they make a more pleasant atmosphere. There are various ways of using a rented palm tree, a pool party is one of them. And, after the rental period is done, they are returned back to the rental company in the condition that they were delivered.
Conclusion

Actually, this is not true since there are various types of palm trees and some of them are more resistant than others. Some of them can be even grown as north as New England. Some of those trees are cold hardy palm trees that can survive literally anywhere. The delivery is done with them already planted and protected, sometimes it is possible to reserve a tree and get it delivered during spring or summer if you are not OK with it being delivered to you in winter or late fall.
