What is the life expectancy of Queen Palms? We live in the Chandler area, our house is about 18 years old (we are not the original owners), and two of six queen palms have died, and two others look very bad. Other plants, including a smaller palm (next to one of the ones that look like its dying)   seem to be flourishing.
Any thoughts as to what's happening?

Thanks
