Sunday of the Lord's Passion or Palm Sunday.

Collect for Palm Sunday BCP

It is right to praise you, Almighty God, for the acts of love by
which you have redeemed us through your Son Jesus Christ
our Lord. On this day he entered the holy city of Jerusalem in
triumph, and was proclaimed as King of kings by those who
spread their garments and branches of palm along his way.
Let these branches be for us signs of his victory, and grant that
we who bear them in his name may ever hail him as our King,
and follow him in the way that leads to eternal life; who lives
and reigns in glory with you and the Holy Spirit, now and for
ever. Amen.

I really have no idea even how they grow, i.e., like a grass?

To the Rainforest Alliance. Yes I think it's wise to check where the palms are coming from.
