Lichens are symbiotic organisms formed by the mutualistic association of fungi and algae or cyanobacteria, while palm trees are vascular plants. Lichens can grow on the surfaces of palm trees, often on their bark, where they derive moisture and nutrients from the air and rain rather than from the tree itself. This relationship is generally not harmful to the palm tree; instead, lichens can indicate good air quality and environmental conditions. However, if excessive, they might affect the tree's ability to photosynthesize by covering its surface.
