Difference between Washingtonia Filifera and Robusta. In particular young plants.

Featured Replies

Although I lived in southern California for 12 years, I never had much time for the garden. We have a home in southern Spain and we have a number of young palms, all fan palms. Initial I thought that they were Robusta, but I am having my doubts now. The plants are self planted and in the region of 5.5 years old. What gives me doubts of my Initial idea of being Robusta, is the trunk for the age seems big for a Robusta. Also the fan elements are straight and stiff. I will add a picture. Any thoughts from those with more knowledge than myself.
