So I have posted this guy before . Bought this from a big box store dirt cheap in a 15 gallon pot . It is doing amazing one thing that drew me to it when I bought it was the fact it was flowering at such a small size . My guess is this is a hybrid. Any ideas when I planted I found a tag in the pot that said Phoenix canary I don’t think it’s full canary : my guess would be canariensis x reclinata someone help me out here .

Any Phoenix hybrid x reclinata would more than likely be suckering even at your's stage in life. It looks like a typical P. canariensis IMO.

Yes looks like a standard Phoenix canariensis to me, if the palm had been pot bound for a time before you purchased it that could make it slightly stunted & bring on flowering when relatively small. Although drought tolerant Phoenix canariensis actually grow better with lots of water too.
