{{PalmSpeciesHeader}} __NOTOC__ The easiest and most obvious difference between them is at the petiole bases (where the leaf attaches to the trunk). ''W. robusta'' usually has purple/reddish petiole bases, while ''W. filifera'' has green. Here are a couple of images illustrating the difference:- [["Dallaspalms.com/images/kernels/W.robusta_petiole.jpg" '''''W. robusta'' petiole''']] and [["Dallaspalms.com/images/kernels/W.filifera petiole Dal.jpg" '''''W. filifera'' petiole''']]. ''W. robusta'' also has a thinner trunk, is taller, and is a significantly faster grower than ''W. filifera'' Here is a picture of the two growing [[File:Dallaspalms.com/images/kernels/W. robusta by filifera.jpg|frame| side by side]] Note: all the images are at [[Dallaspalms.com '''Dallas Palms''']]. ===External Links:=== <p>[https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Washingtonia+difference%22&num=10&sa=Google+Search Google], [https://images.google.com/images?q=%22Washingtonia+difference%22&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search GoogleImages], [https://www.flickr.com/search/?q=Washingtonia+difference Flickr], [https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Washingtonia+difference%22%20site:https://www.palmtalk.org/&sa=Google+Search PalmTalk] <p> [[Category:Washingtonia|difference]] [[Category:Palm|Washingtonia_difference]]
