Pritchardia ID for a friend

Featured Replies

A friend recently bought an older home in Encinitas which was planted over the last 40 years.  One of the newer plantings, but still before they purchased the home, was a Pritchardia.  I went over to help them id a few things, and while my guess is that this Pritchardia is hillebrandii, I thought I should solicit a couple of other opinions.  Take a look and see what you think.

Aloha,

Even without flower, this does look like P hillebrandii to me. I'm only familiar with Hawaii grown plants, but the wavy blade, waxy color and especially the dense fibrous leaf bases are characteristic.

beautiful!

Agree with your assessment Tracy.
