Butia capitata, Trachecarpus fortunei, Washingtonia robusta


Hello all,
 
I just got three palms to plant for my husband's birthday - he loves palms.  This is the first place I have lived where a palm would grow.  Does anyone know about planting and care for palms.  The Butia and Trachecarpus are in 15 gallon pots and the Washingtonia is in a 5 gallon.  Does anyone know how long it takes Butia to fruit and does it need a pollinator plant or are they self fertile?  Any information will be appreciated.  Thank you.
