When the bases have grow really wide and huge, the trunks have been stumped and allowed to be regorwn and are kept tidy and healthy I think they look really good in a nice bonsai pot.
Some people will say they can't be "bonsai"...so when they are around you can just call it an accent plant.

I see a lot of little Sago Palms for sell down here. The seem to have a pretty small leaf....or palms....or whatever you call them. If you like palms and want something small, that may be an option.
