cuzco?

can you show the old growth? looks like some long spines are missing on the main side shown?

raphis palm on the right? decent clump of it good to block out noise and keeping your privacy.

nice tricho, looks too blue to be a cuzco but all depends on environment.

Probably another mutt, but I'd love to see the longer spines on the lower section too.

I won't be able to take another picture of the original until mid October ( I'm away at school right now). But here is a smaller top cut from the same mother plant that I took with me. This guy has been growing in a slightly colder environment 300 miles north of the first cutting. Thanks

Here is the update I promised you guys. Really weird spine length change. Good growth for a month and a half though.
