These two palms have been growing for years in my dad's backyard in Deltona, FL. I am clueless about the first one but one of my _____ is resembling it more and more (I did not want to bias the id yet).

Palm #1:

Frank

Zone 9b pine flatlands

humid/hot summers; dry/cool winters

with yearly freezes

Palm #2:

As for scale, I believe you will find your answer somewhere throughout this thread:

Thanks for your prompt responses After taking the picture of the first one I realized there are TWO growing at the same place. Coccothrinax. That's what I was thinking too, after comparing with two seedlings that I have. But, Coccothrinax??? Does that palm occur naturally in the northern edge of central Florida???
