I stumbled upon this amazing palm planted in the gardens of a church in NE Portland.  I've seen taller trimmed specimens at one of the local palm nurseries, but not one this big in terms of sheer bulk.  Wish I had something in for scale.

You can't really see it on streetview but it's at the corner of SE 14th and SE Ash St in Portland, OR.

Nice one! There is a similar sized one just down the street from me, it’s kind of hidden away in someone’s front yard and I think I’d look like a weirdo trying to get a picture of it.
