{{Inc|
Washingtonia gracilis, Parish (W. robusta, Hort., not Wendl.). A slender-trunked palm, to 80 ft. or so, the lvs. nearly or quite destitute of filaments: petioles 2-3 ft. long, rather convex on upper surface, the hard margins armed with short yellow hooked spines for the entire length, the top acuminate where it joins the blade; ligule paper-like, narrow, entire; lf.-blade about 3 ft. diam., with 75-80 folds, cleft little more than one-third toward base: peduncle declined, exceeding the lvs.: fls. nearly sessile: seed broad-ovate, about 1/4 in. long, somewhat rugose or wrinkled on the raphal face. Probably native in northern Low. Calif.—From the W. filifera group this tree is distinguished by its slender trunk, smaller and less deeply divided shorter-stalked lvs. which bear no filaments or threads except now and then one in the sinuses of some of the folds.
