The differences between the two variants of macrocarpa are:

Crownshaft Color: Standard macrocarpa has a dark green crownshaft. The 'Hookerii' sports a striking pale yellow/blonde crownshaft.
New Leaf Color: Both throw brilliant new red leaves, but 'Hookeri' may have a slightly darker, denser red, while standard macrocarpa often produces a more ruby red.
Sun Tolerance: Palm community discussions indicate 'Hookeri' may have slightly better sun tolerance and resist burning better than standard green macrocarpa.
