Hello everyone,

I'm new here and have been growing various palms for several years, mostly Trachycarpus... I've recently started growing Sabal species and am having trouble identifying some of them, as they don't yet have any flower stalks or seeds.

Perhaps an expert here could tell me something based on the photos.

Looks like S. palmetto from what I've seen. Nice. Is your intention to plant these?

If it turns out to be a Palmetto, I would try planting it out... how certain are you of the identification?

Certain enough to know that someone will certainly challenge my certainty.

Sabal palmetto is probably the most common Sabal in cultivation. The chances of finding other species in Europe are pretty remote

Sabal bermudana and minor are pretty common in Europe, but I agree this one looks more like palmetto.
