Dear Dave and friends thereof,

Does anyone know the official name of the palm, blue/grey in color, and of H>50', with huge fan-like palms? The seeds are clusters that resemble tropical plums (found in Guatemala)--these resemble some really big grapes!

I wish to plant these and get some palms on some pots. It may take a few years before one can appreciate the magnitude, but if given to friends and family, these could withstand hurricanes, droughts, et al...oh, sorry, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera! Am I right?

Oh, its me, lonesome me. And nobody else--rather, no one else! So, I should hope to get some good feedback and locate the actual palm I long for...the only thing I know: it is not the Jesus Crist Palm that is so popular in Key West!

Hi Albatros. You need to take this question to the Plant identification forum. There you may get your answer.
