At Rojales market on Thursday 21st March you can see/buy the palm branches to carry for the palm Sunday procession if you want to.

The tradition I gather is following Palm Sunday to hang them up in or outside your house until Ash Wednesday next year when you burn them.
Here's details of Palm Sunday & the other Easter processions: https://www.talkquesada.com/fiestas-parades-tapas-trails-in-quesada-f77/easter-parades-t75727.html

Elche sends a white palm branch to the Pope for Palm Sunday. It's traditional for Catholics (don't know about other religions) to get a bottle of Easter water after it is blessed on Holy Saturday and a sprig of palm after the blessing of the palm on Palm Sunday.
