Short Palm suggestions for zone 6

I'm new to this forum and this is my first time posting. I want to get into growing palms this year. I live northwest of Detroit. I live next to a small inland lake and would like to grow some palms that won't get too tall. I saw the posting from artictropical on how he winterizes his palms and I will do the same thing. Although I will have difficulties putting on a frame that is taller than 8ft. I would like to stick with a trunking type palm like the trachycarpus wagnerianus and butia eriospatha. I prefere not to start with small palms. Probably a 5 to 10 gallon size. Since this is my first year growing, I think I should stick to just a few palms to see how I do. Any other suggestions.
