Guide for identifying seedlings of the Fan Palm variety

[byuind]

I’ve got several different variants of Washingtonia, sabal, etc in my neighborhood.

 

I walk around with my kids and we talk about the different types and identifying the mature specimens.

 

what I’d love is a visual on identifying the seedlings because I honestly can’t tell the difference myself. I know the Sabal is probably more likely to propagate in theory but it’s tough for me to know for sure.

 

thanks in advance!

Seedlings of fan palms can be difficult to identify - particularly Sabal seedlings.  They all have strap leaves that look like blades of grass and look alike.  They are a bit easier to ID once they develop adult fan leaves.  For me it's easier to identify by the seed.  Brahea seeds are shaped differently than Chamaerops and larger than most Sabals and Washingtonia, etc.

Working with such articles awakens my creativity, allowing me to learn new things. This is extremely important for me, given my participation in the preparation of my doctoral dissertation. That's why, I decided to use research proposal writing help from professional writers. This will make me feel more confident. However, reading broadens my horizons, which leads to the discovery of fresh topics and ideas. If I didn't read, my source of inspiration and knowledge would be greatly impoverished.

Washingtonia seedlings typically have fan-shaped leaves that are deeply divided into segments. The leaves are usually large and can resemble a hand with fingers.
