7 Species - 35 Seeds
by Small palm- 1 reply
- 1.2k views
I currently have 7 different species of palm with a total of 35 seeds. I will list the species below with the quantity. I bought these seeds last spring (2016). I've been trying to sprout them over the last year, but I've had no luck. I know Palm seeds usually need bottom heat from a heating pad to sprout. Scarification can help them sprout too. I haven't tried bottom heat or scarification on these. The only reason I'm selling these is because I need to make room for some other seeds that I will be growing later this year. I don't have time or room to grow a large variety of plants. There's no guarantee they will sprout, but I gave them the water float test and they…

I have for a beginning 50 seeds of this Livistona to give away: http://www.palmpedia.net/wiki/Livistona_sp._%27konstantinosa%27 I can send only 10 seeds to each person, mainly because I am bound to mail only whole fruits, since cleaning off seeds has proven a very difficult and time costing task. So, if intersested, shoot a pm with your address.

A friend has grown his Pachypodium for 13 years and this is the first time it has produced seed pods. Knowing I am in touch with lots of plant enthusiasts, he wanted me to offer the seeds for free to any takers. Easiest to provide to US residents who will pay shipping. There are possibly 200 - 300 seeds. I have never grown the plant and know nothing about germination. The grower thought it was a palm, but now he knows better. Any takers?

Hi all, I have 5 plumeria seedlings that I have to give away due to lack of conditions at my place. Sown in January 2015 , they have up to 50cm of trunk.

Here's a sample of offered seedlings, sorry, never really was a photographer :))

First Roystonea Harvest
by Kumar- 12 replies
- 3.3k views
The first flowering of my roystonea regia took place in august last year and the fruits are now mature and falling like rain. I've collected a large handful and can send them off to anyone who is interested. The mother tree is a real rocket - 45 feet+ at the top of the crownshaft, planted as a three foot high seedling in March 2000. I know this is one of the commonest palms but just in case someone wants some genetic variation. Let me know.

Chamaedorea oreophila, (was C. monostachys)
by Darold Petty- 5 replies
- 2.2k views
This palm is considered the third most frost hardy, after C. radicalis and C. microspadix. Unfortunately in my very cool, humid microclimate the palm is afflicted by thrip. I gave away previous plants to a friend in a hot, inland area (Brentwood, CA) and the thrip problem went away, his palms are growing well. I purchased these three 1-gallon plants shown in the photograph as a second attempt to grow this species in my garden. They are mature, and two have flowerstalks. However they have been damaged by thrip also. I don't care to attempt to control the thrip with chemical pesticide so I offer them for free. The only condition is no shipping; you mus…

Hello all. I have some D lanceolata seeds that should be ripening up soon. These pictures are from the beginning of January. As you can see the seeds are still green and not ripe yet. When they are ripe, you are more than welcome to them. The only catch is that the tree is in Leilani Estates, Hawaii and I am not. So this is an offer for the local folks over there. Just send me a PM if you are interested and I will give you directions. Thanks.

Free seeds of reclinata x dactylifera
by Phoenikakias- 1 reply
- 992 views
I have another batch from this cross, actually a neighbouring inflorescence to the one, I had on purpose cross-pollinated, received apparently also dactylifera pollen. I made the mistake however to let the derived infructescence for to long hanging, which enabled an attack of seed borers. So fruits/seeds are not tradable but after disinfection I suppose that in a sutisfying number of seeds embryo has been saved and those seeds have good prospects to germinate. Only a small gesture from me to mitigate the sorrow of european growers because of expected or confirmed winter losses. Europe only for financial and phytosanitary reasons. Send me a PM with your address.
