Specifically I'm looking to put short palm trees on my front lawn, probably no higher than 6-7 feet. And want to know what types of palms work best in direct sunlight all day. Just to give me some options.
What type of palm trees grow best in the desert sun of Arizona?
do you know what USDA zone you're in?
for sure you can grow california desert palms (washingtonia filifera) but they're gonna get a heckuva lot bigger than 6 or 7 feet.
dwarf palmettos are probably going to be hardy enough for you, though they're more common in the southeast where it's wetter.
phoenix robellini is a dwarf date palm that doesn't get much bigger than 7 or 8 feet but they're not very cold tolerant. if it dips below freezing for long periods of time, you'll probably have to protect it or it'll go belly up.
