Calcarea

Super Silver

...

Maybe too blue being young to be Super Silver? If it is Calcarea I think it is less cold hardy.

I'd guess that'd be B. armata. What is a 'super silver'? Is that a variety of armata?

It is probably a Brahea Super Silver. The petioles don' t show any spines.

I agree. Could be calcarea ( nitida) as well. I have four like this and they didn’t start out green like super silver does.
