Need to identify this Palm 🌴


Recommended Posts

I have a palm tree that I thought was part of some Beccariophoenix M seedlings  I was growing. Eventually IMG_4689.thumb.jpeg.23b441e21b51e82c070d06b16a399e18.jpegIMG_4688.thumb.jpeg.e00b49c7b1810929084074758420ceb0.jpegIMG_4687.thumb.jpeg.4a8377a8ff5b890d6958dc073c7f3afb.jpegI noticed one of the palms was definitely not one of these. I thought I could identify it but  I’m having no luck so far. Any ideas??

@Palms and Pucks that's an interesting question.  The only thing I could think of is Allagoptera Causescens, but that seems wrong too.  The frond bases seem like a young Beccario, maybe it's a dwarf mutant?

I don’t think it’s a allogoptrea caudescens. They have smooth petiole.

Yes, I believe it’s an African Oil Palm. Thanks for the help. Seems to be a very fast grower🌴

@Palms and Pucks oh yeah, durrrrrrrrr.  I knew I recognized the leaves and spike pattern on the base.  I have an Elaeis Guineensis that's just a bit smaller than yours.  It is in some shade, so a bit stretched out compared to yours:
