Is it a pindo?

Chinese livistonia
CHINESE FAN PALM

It looks nice what ever it is

Looks kind of like a young Trachycarpus fortuneii to me. Problem is, they all look a LOT alike when young.

At this point, it's even kind of hard to tell whether it's going to be a palmately-compound leaved palm (although I'm about 80% certain it will be) or a pinnately-compound leaved palm.

You'll probably be able to tell more in another few months to a year or two.

Being that you bought it in fL (right?) well if you did the odds are its not a trachycarpus but I guess its possible.I don't have a good guess on either one sorry.

My vote goes for Livistona chinensis, but it's hard to tell for sure at that size.

It looks alot like a pindo. Its got the leaves of a feather palm. I'm 100% sure that its not a fan palm, because its leaves don't match a fan palm. If it was a fan palm it would have single narrow leaves at first, and then the top of the leaves would have teeth that looks like a hand saw when young, and split in several areas when producing true leaves, and instead yours has a V in the center of the leaf, which I find easy to Identify a feather palm from a fan palm, it is the same way in all palms. Its got a trunk of a pindo. Its also producing several leaves at once, and that is one thing pindos do, and you should get true feather leaves soon.

Are these two different palms ?

I did a search on everyones answers and I'm leaning toward a pindo. I saw a young pindo on a website and they look the same, but a lot of palms are similar when young, right? I guess if I'm still not sure in about 6 months I'll post a new picture of him. Although I'm a Floridan, I'm new to palm knowledge. I use to think every palm would grow coconuts. LOL

David, the two pictures are the same palm. I live in Wellington but I bought him in Hollywood.

Definitely not a fan palm.

I was going to say perhaps in the Phoenix genus?

Maybe a Phoenix reclinata? The leaves almost look too deep green for a Pindo.

But very hard to tell when that young.

Whatever it is it looks great and a steel for two bucks.
