Livistona sp. 'konstantinosa' seeds for sale


Kostas

Recommended Posts

I have 300 seeds of Livistona sp. 'konstantinosa' for sale, 10/12Euro, 100/65Euro + shipping.

The seeds are pure, no other Livistona species was flowering at the same time as this one.

Palmipedia: http://www.palmpedia.net/wiki/Livistona_sp._'konstantinosa'

From my research into it, it seems to be related to chinensis but either an unknown form or a different species belonging to the chinensis group. I don't think its likely to be a hybrid but i am following up its offspring to find out(little to no variation would mean this is a pure species as i think it is). Its much more beautiful than chinensis, with bigger leafs and petioles, a narrower trunk not bulging at the base and always flowers a different season than chinensis. The seeds are very big, the fruits a blue color rather than green like chinensis and the seedlings come up with leafs twice as wide.

This is a cool grower that appreciates lots of water. Cold hardy at least as much as chinensis
