The ashes used on Ash Wednesday are from the burned palms from the previous year's Palm Sunday. Since the palms are consecrated it is not proper to dispose of them in the garbage as Palm Sunday comes around again, so the proper disposition is to burn them and use them in a liturgical function.In a typical Catholic home it should then follow that you may see palms decorating the family crucifix up until just before the start of Lent, when they would then bring them to church to be "recycled" into ashes. Since Palm Sunday happens about 5 weeks into Lent, it should follow that in a devout Catholic home you won't see any palms from just before Ash Wednesday until Palm Sunday.Palm fronds from Palm Sunday are burned.
The first Palm Sunday took place the year Christ rode into Jerusalem, one week before Passover where He has his Passion, Death and subsequent Resurrection. Christ was believed to be 33 years old at this time, so this would mean it would have happened in 33 or 34 A.D. After the creation of the Church, the tradition of Palm Sunday continued by the blessing of palm branches signifying the beginning of Holy Week.
