I am unsure of the species but they seem to have naturalized in this brush , its all undeveloped but its really the only area i see these palms growing wild like that. The whole area on its own seems to be more of a forest than the usual brush country that surrounds the town. No mesquites or huisaches but instead those palms, ash trees, and sugarberries which is very strange. I assume its somewhat of a flood plain as the area seems to always be more moist than its surroundings . There are also larger palm specimens and a lot of young ones sprouting aswell. Bonus wildflower?

I also forgot to mention that there wierdly isn’t a single oak tree in sight

Location makes me think

Sabal Praha?

or

skinny trunk S. mexicana?

 

But the curved fronds and the thin trunk visually makes me think Sabal palmetto but what would it be doing out there…?

What ever it maybe it is definitely a cool find thanks for posting pics Victor.

Its very odd, i have to get back out there to take more pictures. Theyre quite literally in the middle of the forest and most are in groups so theyre canopy completely shades the soil under it. They seem to all be im very nice condition. I have attatched an image of another palm that I found in the same vicinity. That photo was taken after heavy rain and most of the “forest” also gets flooded aswell not just the drainage dug outs.

Thank you, I enjoy sharing what i can find especially something which seems to be very odd over here.

The live oaks would prefer an area that has good drainage.  So this spot doesn't look ideal for them.
