Good looking palms, all.  Interesting the difference in form as well.  Some seem to be growing wider than tall, and some are taller and more slim.

All you need now is cham. humilis var. vulcano with its stiff upright leaves.  I don't even have one do to lack of space. 

Good variety you have.

I've only ever seen a few large vulcano that were being used as seed stock for a local palm nursery - so clearly not for sale.  Can't really say I'm a fan.

You also forgot about Chamaerops "dicks mutant" and then the weepy form.

Here's a weepy form that I have posted here before.  It's doing a Livistona decora impersonation.

Those two are all most impossible to fine nowadays outside of P.T.  I dig the weepy form, dicks mutant is awesome one too.  None of my chamaerops have weepy leaves, even the ones is half a day of shade.  

Their both unique! :lol:

I was just thinking how variable these are in pictures the other day.   They aren’t super common around here, but the ones I do see all look like mine….AD23E70F-0FDF-418A-98D3-B047C551F83C.thumb.jpeg.ab0e0de91c378214d14f0c00b6a4b0a3.jpeg

Spikey-spikey, and the leaflets stay tightly folded, kind of a middle green with a hint of blue.  Just like your “in between”.

I'm piggybacking on this thread just to post this picture of a young anole lizard on my Med Fan - just because.
