Hi Len,

I had several seeds damp off and only successfully germinated one all the way through. That is the one I referenced in my post. So the answer to your question is zero. If I don't sell this one the answer to your question will be 1 once I move to my new house.

Was hoping to see if they looked different once planted or bigger. Sure looks like a Queen.

I hope it isn't a queen Len but I know you have a really good eye when it comes to IDs. Unfortunately I did a poor job of germinating these or else I would have had more to pick from.

I am offering one of these for sale. I figured I'd list it here on Palmtalk first. It is seed grown. I acquired the seeds from Tim about 2 years ago. I'm sorry that other people had problems with Tim but my dealings with him were fine. I know some have brought up that it might not be a true cross. I can't attest to that and can provide no guarantees. If it turns out that this palm is indeed a Queen Palm x Queen Palm I would not offer a refund, so caveat emptor. All I can say is that I acquired the original seeds as the Syagrus R. X Parajubaea Sunkha palm originally advertised in this post, and the seeds definitely looked different than the Queen Palm seeds that fall from my trees. I have only 1 for sale. Price is $100. USA only. Photo is attached. Contact me at icebluecycads@yahoo.com if interested. Local San Diego pick-up would be preferred.

Patrick Schafer has been unable to cross syagrus with parajubaea.... I don't think it is possible. Maybe a butyagrus x parajubaea cocoides should be attempted.

If Patric can't do it, these seem likely to be pure Queens given the uncontrolled environment they were apparently attempted...

Nope I didn't sell it here. I thought this was a desirable plant but I was simply getting too much drama here and via personal messages. I realized it'd be nothing but headaches if I sold it to a palmtalker. It is now in the hands of a good friend who purchased it for a 6 pack of Ballast Point Grunion. I'll post updated photos here as it grows. If it turns out to be the real deal he owes me.

That was a good move and glad to hear it. If it turns out to be something, sweet - if not, no one feels "taken" by paying a hybrid price.

I want to know if the hybrid from tim hopper syagrus rom. x parajubaea sunkha is fake or not?

Are you sure it's only a syagrus or not?

The consensus here is that. Tim's is not a hybrid.

Sorry mate, not to be rough. I read your comments. Why you don't upload a pic from the ones in France?
