This is a palm at Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens, which I photograph today and cannot identify. At one time I thought it was a Calyptrocalx spicata. IMG_1884.thumb.jpeg.73249cfc6dd7116ba54ab3dbad1aa1cf.jpegYour thoughts would be greatly appreciated:

Wow.

It resembles standard form Hydriastele beguinii with the leaves and that perfect inflorescence spathe. I can only zoom in on the photo so far at that size, but it looks like it. The lower rachises and petioles appear to have the fuzzy tomentum. 

Awesome old plant. It seems to have a cold damage scar halfway up the trunk. It looks great considering the cold we just had (and are continuing to get). He and his Chambeyronia neighbor seem to have a protected spot. The species was in Siphokentia (or perhaps even Nengella) when it was planted.
