SD Zoo and Balboa Park surroundings are a gold mine for Palm, Encephalartos and Aloe sightings. Some cool pics there.

Great photos as usual Kyle. 
 

A couple of IDs I’d question:

Chamaedorea adscendens - looks like Chamaedorea klotzschiana I think

Carpoxylon - looks like Hyophorbe indica?

Rhopalostylis sapida - looks more like R baueri to me but not certain on this one. Overall growth habit just seems more typical of baueri

yes, absolutely agree, no chamaedorea adscendens - it is chamaedorea klotzschiana, I have many of these in the garden

Stunning collection . I never get tired of Balboa Park or San Diego zoo. So many palms and cycads to be seen there. As soon as my hip heals we will go down and visit our daughter and take in the park. They moved a couple of large Bizmarkia recently , I hope they are ok. Harry
