That is a Sago Palm (Cycas revoluta), Diane. It isn't actually a palm, but instead a cycad--a relative of conifers that predates the dinosaurs. The only practical difference from palms is that it only puts on new growth in the late spring, early summer. Those new leaves have to last it as close to a year as possible, or the plant will gradually shrink to death. Very slow growing.

THANKS/DO YOU HAVE ANY HOME REMEDIES ON HOW TO RID THE YARD FROM JAPANESE BEETLES?

None that I know of. Thank goodness we don't have them here in Arizona yet!
You might want to make that a separate question, to gain a wider audience.
