I used to think that my Sabal Louisiana had shorter inflorescences than Minors but after fertilizing the Louisiana they are about the same height . What I have noticed is how compact the inflorescences are on my Louisianas and how the Minors have more sprawling inflorescences . Another difference is that the Louisianas inflorescences seem to be maturing faster . They are a darker color than the whiter less mature flowers in the Minors .

 

Sprawling Minor inflorescences below    :

The more compact and as of today more mature looking Sabal Louisiana below ( These pictures were taken over a week ago and the Louisiana inflorescences look to be more mature today  )  :
