Cool Skinny and not so tall Tropical Palms

The first picture to me sort of looks like either a Christmas Palm or a Montgomery Palm.

The second one is very similar to a palm that I got years ago as Dypsis 'Laffa'.

It might be called something better now.

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

The first is not Adonidia merrilli (Christmas tree palm/Manila palm),  which can be quite large and are ubiquitous in this area. All Veitchia montgomeryana's I have seen are clustering but they are skinny. Second palm may be Dypsis laffa. I am beginning to believe that a number of the skinny folks are forms of Ptyosperma...

This is the kind of skinny I am talking about. It is in the middle of this picture and you can barely see it:F2BD08A8-BACE-4FBD-903D-4DCFE2945486.thumb.jpeg.22cbc9c8a152bd2b95541848f5386f46.jpegp
