Sabal palmetto Lisa seeds for sale

[PalmatierMeg]

Sabal Lisa was first discovered in SWFL and described in 2006, named for the discoverer's wife. Only a handful of this mutant palm have been found in the wild. Seeds for sale are from the smaller of two Lisas that used to be on opposite sides of an I75 exit and now are safely planted in Ft. Myers. The larger palm is now too tall to access and the smaller one will be also in a year or two. I am posting a photo of the mother palm. Not all of these seeds will become Lisas. I have been told 20% is the norm. But when I first collected seeds in 2008 I had 60% turn out to be Lisas. However, that was over 8 years ago and I make no promises or guarantees about your results. Also, keep in mind that it may take up to 5 years (in FL) for Lisa traits to reliably show. If you live in a colder area you may have to wait longer so be patient.

Photo 1 is a sample of the seeds, Photo 2 is of the mother palm. Next two photos are of my second largest Sabal Lisa on my garden lot showing its stiff, pleated leaves. Last photo is of my smallest Sabal Lisa, which is about 4-5 years old and still strap leaf. If you look closely you will see its leaves are deeply convex and look like they might roll into tubes. That convex cupping is a dead giveaway.

I don't know when or if I will be able to obtain seeds from this palm again so don't let this opportunity to grow this very rare mutant Sabal escape you. I keep praying my largest Lisa will flower one year soon. I will combine shipping if you buy other seeds.

50 seeds for $15.00

100 seeds for $25.00

Shipping in padded envelope: $4.00 in the U.S for up to 200 seeds. (Except HI which specifically prohibits importation of Sabal seeds)

NOTE: I will ship up to 100 seeds to other countries for $15.00 shipping. I'm sorry the charge is so high, but International shipping from the US went up 50% last year even for a 1 oz. packet of palm seeds.  Also, I can't be responsible if your customs seizes your seeds. I must declare contents of envelopes on a US Gov't website and cannot lie.
