Perhaps we can find a general simple tagging for palms.
key:genus and key:species expect the scientific name of a plant. These are normaly not known to non-botanists.
"taxon:en=palm" may be a good solution, although I would prefer "taxon=palm". Unfortunable the latter don't fit to the taxon definition.

There are species and genus tags, but many mappers won't be able to
fill that those. Palm on the other hand is easy,
and makes a great map symbol also.
If you're not sure about the genus or species, you could also use more generic taxon like
family=Arecaceae
or common names, like family:en=palm
Or following this page: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:taxon
taxon:family=Arecaceae
taxon:family:en=palm
or if you don't know that palms are a family:
taxon:en=palm
(at least that's what the taxon page suggests).
Cheers,
Martin
