Hi everyone,

A few years ago, I purchased a palm seedling thinking it was a bottle palm (the seller assured me it was).

However, based on its current growth, I'm pretty sure it's not a Bottle Palm.
I'm looking for help in identifying the actual species of this palm. I can't seem to identify it,  and I'm hoping someone here can help me out.

I've attached a few pictures to help with the identification. Any insights or suggestions on what species this might be would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!

It certainly has theHyophorbe look to it but the bottle shape isn’t there yet and I believe it should be so , in my eye , Spindle palm. Harry

I think Tim has it. Definitely not spindle palm, usually the crown shaft would be much more colorful.
