Palms are members of the Arcaceae family of flowering plants. They have been termed "the princes of the vegetable kingdom."

Of course, due to their enormous size, palms are commonly referred to as 'trees.' If one falls on your car, you're not going to tell the insurance agent that the damage was caused by a flowering plant.
