That’s so cool to learn this is a palm blooming. I’m in Northern Ohio so I don’t know much in regard to palms. I know they’re technically grass but I’ve heard them be referred to as the ‘celery’ of trees.
EDIT: closely related to grass

Flower spike, the flowers are the pink bits. I think this palm could be a Picabeen Palm *Archontophoenix cunninghamiana*

I was very curious about what type of palm this is, so, for anyone else who’s wondering, it seems to be an Archontophoenix Alexandrae (an “alexandra palm” or “king palm”). (Specifically, [this one](https://maps.app.goo.gl/w8ujmNHMHXknPPWj6).)

Looks like cordyceps fungi. Don’t breath in the spores.

Good reminder that Palms, being monocotyledons related to corn, have a vaguely similar husk/sheath and vaguely similar hair-like, silky flowering structures.
Palms and corn are basically just big grass blades with a very rudimentary simple vascular system.

I saw that for the first time in Hawaii like 20 years ago. It was wild then, too.

That’s the flower/fruit.
It’s blooming!
Palm trees tend to do that when flourished
