It's actually Otatea fimbriata, which grows to about 30 feet, close to 2" diameter culms, and seems to run up to 12 feet or more from one culm to the next. I haven't seen the other specie of the genus(O. acuminata) , but it's supposed to be all over in Sonora, and other dry northwest Mexican states which are north of here.
Thanks for the pic though.
