Nice little one you have there! I see you are going for the dense jungle look, I like the variety of leaf patterns in your photos.

Photo below of my Cryosophila, though I'm uncertain as to its true identity, no species ID on the tag. Planted in 2/2021 from an overgrown 3-gal. Very very spiny on the small trunk, as expected. This palm always holds lot of leaves and looks good; a bit yellow in this photo from September. Full sun, east Hawaii Island.
