A new species in cultivation !!!

Featured Replies

I'm quite sure it has never been cultivated (just one which come from those seeds)...

So you will never find what it is

But you can search ....

Some ideas ???

The seeds are 3-4 cm long

Don't throw them out, they can take a couple of years to germinate if they are Butia.

Put them somewhere really hot, with cooler night temperatures.

Agreed Jonathan,

I have these germinating in the boots of my Butia, 4 years since it last flowered.

Yippee, the drought is over.

Looks like some kind of Syagrus to me... Maybe schizophylla?

NEVER throw seeds away if they haven't gone rotten! Cocoid seeds can take years to germinate.

Seeds like this allways look very interesting to me :drool:

Nice sunsets!

No, not pseudococos, not vermicularis

YEEESSS, BINGO as we said in French !!! :lol:

It's Syagrus stratincola .. one of the only clumping Syagrus, and that has probably never been cultivated yet ...

I would bet that Dr. Larry Noblick from Montgomery Botanical Center has secured this species and is growing on site.

Nice acquisition. :)

This species is not yet cultivated at the Montgomery Fondation but we sent some seeds from this harvest to Larry Noblick. This is the very first time he is able to see this species that is restricted only to a few granitic mountains (called "Inselbergs") throuhougt the Guianas. Inselbergs are difficult to explore as they are like islands of rock surrounded by an ocean of pure wild amazon forest. All those seeds of Syagrus stratincola are from a single specimen cultivated in a private garden in Cayenne, French Guiana that is just reaching maturity this year. (the one on the photo posted by Olivier). This specimen is from a seed brought back by a botanist who when to an Inselberg a few years ago. As far as we know, germination of fresh seeds is fast and very easy. The Palm much ressemble Syagrus inajai, the orther species to be found wild in French Guiana, but has clumping habit. Fully grown garden specimens are not knwn for the moment (would anyone has that in cultivation, please, let us know!), but would certainly be gorgious! Seeds were given to various Ti-Palm’ members in French Guiana, Guadeloupe and Martinique and we’ll give regular news on the talks.

rare = expensive.............usually. I like it, that makes 3 or 4 Syagrus I like now.

I'll have to duck after I say this, but I can see why it hasn't been cultivated. Doesn't take my breath away...

P.S. If you're gong to throw something at me, make it Carpoxylon seed!!

Kim,

After they throw them at you, WHAT are going to do with them??? Throw them at someone far away that has a chance of growing them? :lol:

Sorry I couldn't resist, from the other thread!

We also have palms I would love to have, that don't do well here in central Florida also, and Carpoxylon is one of them! :)

It looks similar to the one in this thread so why not show you which could quite possibly be another Syagrus clumper all together. I spoke to Clayton and he thought it might be Syagrus sp stenopetlata..?

Here's the photos.

I found one more. So what does everyone think ?

These could look good mixed with other palms and tropical type looking plants. I think there must be heaps of different Syagrus in South America in spots not yet identified. Probably more Euterpes etc.
