British Cemetery

Just on the outskirts of town, a cemetery for British ex-pats. Possibly of more interest to us, it also has a pair of beautiful Royal palms - Roystonea sp. My question is - why don't they grow these more often? Queen palms are everywhere, these were amongst a very small handful of royals I saw there but they win the beauty stakes hands down.
