Sabal minor seed viability

Recommended Posts

I had some seeds I bought this last January and college was so hectic I did not get around to planting them. Can anyone tell me how long Sabal Minor seed will remain viable for? I figure they were probably already a year old when I purchased them.

Its good for years as long as bugs didnt eat them.

Thanks, that's good to hear. I did buy some once with some kind of weevil in them that we don't have around here so I know what you mean by bugs.

They are in virtually all sabal seeds so you really have to watch them.  I always treat with a powder insecticide after I clean the seeds.
