   These were passed on to me by a local collector and need a good home! The filifera seed was personally collected in habitat at Anzo Borrego Desert State Park. The Cycas hybrid should be like a sago palm on steroids with multiple flushes year and larger/more robusta overall. Local pickup in Katy or College Station only. Thanks!

   Rhapis Excelsa - South Orange County

   A friend of mine told me this beautiful clump of Rhapis excelsa is going to be removed by her HOA if someone else does not remove it first. I have seen it. I am planning on taking my shovel, a Sawzall, pruner, and some burlap sacks a week from Saturday and see what dent I can put in this thing to take back to the I.E. If anyone else has any interest in the rest of it and can remove it by hand the same day I'm there, I think they will appreciate it. Message me privately for South Orange County, CA location. I'll cross post this to IPS on Facebook. My friend does not want a crowd of people there. Just me and maybe another person or two.

    Phoenix hybrid (reclinata x canariensis) x rupicola

    September 16, 2021 by Josue Diaz

    • 1 follower
    • 10 replies
    • 1.5k views

    I have ripening seed of this hybrid - the seed parent is a hybrid of unknown parentage. I purchased it as Phoenix reclinata, but it is likely a hybrid of reclinata and canariensis, or dactylifera and canariensis. Either way, solitary with small but yummy fruit, and very rigid leaves. The pollen parent is a Phoenix rupicola from RPS seed. I hand pollinated the flowers, but it's also likely they could have received canariensis pollen from one of several mature canariensis or from a mature dactylifera on my block. Free for pickup in Fresno

    If anyone in NorCal wants A. cunninghamiana seeds, I have several fruiting plants at the minute - both "regular" and "Illawarra" varieties. At this stage, I'm just cutting them down and throwing them in the green waste. If you'd like to come by and harvest some, you are welcome to take as many as you like. Sorry, no shipping - local growers only please!

    This is a bulb plant with year round green foliage like Lily of the Nile. Best in at least half a day’s sun, regular water, good soil. But tough, hard to kill, makes great big edging or barrier. Shoot me PM if interested or post questions here.

    8 Sabal Palmetto for free (Houston area)

    Hey guys, I have eight Sabal Palmetto Seedlings which I got from eBay in April for $84. They are in ground but since they are very small and it rained heavily these days I can easily dig them out. The reason why I want to give them away is that I don't have space for them anymore. So, if you are in the Houston area just reply to this email and those seedlings will be yours. Of course that I will give them away for free but please hurry because I need to give them away soon.

    These are pictures of the original palm and another of the same palm along with the small ones. If anyone wants any of these small ones, they can come and dig them out. They came from seeds from the one in the front yard. Located in Dade City FL. They are not susceptible to TPPD.

    Carpoxylon Seeds

    I have a few seeds that I probably won’t use. I would like to trade for Dypsis Lastelliana seeds. Maybe others. Cyrtostachys Renda would be nice. If I can’t get a trade, I could send the seeds for no charge. But they are large and I don’t want to eat the shipping cost. I’m guessing $10 would cover it. And I don’t do PayPal so you would have to send me cash or check.

    I have some extra germinated Phoenix sylvestris (or possible hybrids) seeds to give away. At least two seeds showing germination through the baggie (more seeds may yet germinate). These were sourced from a palm growing at the RIM in San Antonio, Texas (prior to the Great Texas Freeze of 2021). I am willing to ship for free to the lower 48; just agree to give them a good home. PM me if interested (first come, first serve).
