Seedlings Ravenea glauca or Burretiokentia hapala?

I planted some Ravenea glauca seeds and Burretiokentia hapala seeds a couple of years ago in a few pots in my garden.  I have given away almost all the Ravenea glauca seedlings but don't know if the one remaining pot is more of the Ravenea or the Burretiokentia hapala?  

To me, they resemble the other Ravenea glauca seedlings but I don't recall putting seeds or seedlings from the Ravenea in this part of the yard.  That is a 1 gallon pot for size perspective. 

Thoughts?

Burretiokentia would have entire leaves or much fatter leaflets at that stage.  Looks like R glauca to me.

    To me they look like glauca seedlings, the good old rookie mistake has come back to haunt you, always label your seeds when planting them! Never rely on memory after all we are human.
