Context of Psalms 92:13
11My eyes look at my enemies; when evildoers rise against me, my ears hear them. 12The righteous thrive like a palm tree and grow like a cedar tree in Lebanon. Planted in the house of the Lord, they thrive in the courts of our God. 14They will still bear fruit in old age, healthy and green, 15to declare, “The Lord is just; he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.”

I do not think there is any allusion to either palm-trees or cedars, planted near the tabernacle or temple.Read the comment
