I'm not very familiar with this species, as it's not often seen here in Florida. Saw this today at Edison Ford Estates and it's a stunning palm, but surely Normanbyi would have plumose leaves at this size, correct? I'm not sure what it is though.  The crownshaft is closer to Wodyetia than Veitchia, and the leaves arch in a way that reminds me of Adonidia more than anything. Are there known Normanbyi hybrids or is this a species that I'm not thinking of?

Probably mislabeled. Looks more like a 'foxy lady' palm which is a cross between a foxtail and Veitchia arecina.

I considered that but wasn't sure if the look was right. Probably the most likely suspect. Thanks.
