I think the kit comes with two, check out the Great Models Webstore they have very competitive pricing usually beats the vast majority. If nothing else it would be a good refence point. If you wanted to save the $ I would make them myself palms are fairly easy to make using foil lead or aluminum for the palm frons.

Tamiya mag done a feature on how to make your own palm trees about a year ago may be worth asking some one to send you the article if possiable
