Some Royal Palms (Roystonea regia) and what looks like a Canary Island Date Palm (Phoenix canariensis). All appear to be suffering from Manganese deficiency associated with being planted too close to the limestone substrate used as a base with asphalt pavement.

I found these Royal Palms (Roystonea regia) growing in a secluded, wooded spot on the SE end of Lake Clay, here in Lake Placid. They were surrounded by huge Ficus trees (Indian/Cuban laurels, maybe even banyans) with tremendously wide spreads and huge aerial roots.
