This Silver Palmetto is blooming. It is a cousin of the Saw Palmetto, which has shiny green fronds instead of these silver-green fronds. The flowers will later produce berries that are harvested by some folks as a treatment for enlarged prostate, but this not a proven remedy.

A closer view of the flowers of the silver palmetto. They are thin spikes that point in all different directions, and are yellow-green in color. They will later produce berries that some people harvest for treatment of enlarged prostate, although this is not a proven remedy.
