Im sorry I know this isnt a palm but I know you guys know everything so im asking, what kinda of plant is this and what its name. Here are some pics. It looks like and grows like a yucca. It grows pretty fast. And the leaves are solid and round like long tooth picks or like long skewers like you use for shish kabab. Got it from alabama a grower said he got them from mexico. any info would be appreciated.

I can't see the ends of the leaves, so it is hard to tell. My best guess is Dasylirion longfolia, but it could be agave sticta if the end of the leaves are sharp?

the leaves come to a point like a tooth pick. they dont seem like regular leaves there are woody and very hard and perfectly round from the base to the sharp tips. The leaves are very heavy and solid. The leaves feel like wood , solid and if you try to bend one it will break like a tooth pick.

Yucca glauca?
