Can anyone tell what it is by its crown shape and flowers? It is blue. But it doesn't look like B. armata to me (Short fruit stalks). My phone has a really bad quality camera, couldn't take good enough photos.

    If it's blue with short inflorescences perhaps it's a blue form of Brahea dulcis.  If there's no petiole thorns perhaps Brahea super silver.

    From what I have seen, it's definitely not a Super Silver. They don't have any droop to them.

    Really hard to ID from the photos but the leaflets look really deeply divided which isn’t consistent with dulcis. Maybe B aculeata?
