Hi everyone, I found this palm buried in the back of a small nursery in New Orleans and no one there had a clue what it was. Apparently it had been left over from a batch a few years ago and has just been hidden behind a fence with no tag or price. In person it is much more silver/blue than the pics. The last pic is a palm that they called a cane palm but I can’t tigure out what it actually is if anyone knows that one also. Both palms apparently survived low 20s last winter. 47513E36-3734-4915-98FA-ECC39E4656B4.thumb.jpeg.9d4522f7986a875fe38258450ca2ca27.jpeg8B3BB07F-40EA-4C66-96C0-34CE00181F10.thumb.jpeg.2892e72d60bafea3d84f5c113a7a9709.jpeg7B8E6FB6-B06C-44D1-B534-268754090F1A.thumb.jpeg.dccf896ac90e8b81322283187c17f004.jpegThanks for the help.

The big black thorns made me think of Livistona Saribus.  But I didn't realize that Copernicia Prunifera was that toothy...so yep I'd agree with both IDs.  :)

Yeah, the second one looks A. englerii to me. The first one was confusing for me because we don't do Copernicas  out here on the west coast much. I just haven't seen them at all to know what's what. The thorns look Livistona, the leaves look Trachycarpus, I was just confused lol
