   I have the following Chamaedorea palm species in pots available for free but you must pick them up in Cape Coral. They are too large to ship. Most of them are trunking and are old enough to flower. If you are coming to SW FL and are interested in these beauties, PM me. Species available: Chamaedorea costaricana Chamaedorea elegans Chamaedorea glaucifolia Chamaedorea oblongata Chamaedorea seifrizii Chamaedorea tepejilotie

   This is a bulb plant with year round green foliage like Lily of the Nile. Best in at least half a day’s sun, regular water, good soil. But tough, hard to kill, makes great big edging or barrier. Shoot me PM if interested or post questions here.

   I grew several of these cycads from seed, just to see if I could, and now I have too many considering I can’t grow them outside in my DC climate. I have four one-year old seedlings to give away. I would just ask that you pay for shipping (not sure how much that will be, but we can figure that out). I would prefer to give all four to one person as that’s easiest for me. If nobody wants all four, I’ll do individually. They’re in 5” deep pots. Send me a PM! Patrick

   CHAMADOREA RADICALIS SEEDS

   Howdyall: I have some Chamadorea radicalis seeds to give away, no charge. These are all from female tree-type plants, with pollen from nearby male bush-types. Hardy as sorrow, and persistent as the Reaper. Great pot plant, even in Alaska, etc. Please shoot me a PM, with the words "Chamadorea radicalis seeds" in the subject, plus your address in the message and I'll mail some to you. I'm going to wait a couple weeks to gauge interest, then send the seeds out in a couple of weeks or so. Best Dave

    Free Phoenix Canariensis Hybrid and King Palm Seedlings

    I had a fun time germinating some Archontophoenix C. seeds and some Phoenix Canariensis x ? (probably dactylifera)seeds. However now I have a bunch of seedlings that I have no use for, and I just can't bear to get rid of. The king palm seedlings are all in two 1g community pots. The phoenix seedlings are mostly in 4 inch liners. If you can put them to use, "Come and git em!" Sorry, no shipping. I'm in Chula Vista, 10 minutes south of San Diego. PM me if interested, thanks!

    Anyone interested in a Brachychiton rupestris or two? Ive grown two of these up for several years and I just don't have room for a specimen tree such as these. They're currently in 15 gallon cans and about 10 feet tall overall including the cans. They've been in the 15 gallon cans for probably 3 or 4 years. This would have to be a local pickup only in CA bay area zip code 94561. I'll post up pictures once I get home today (I'm at work now). I first fell in love with these when I saw one at The Bancroft Garden in Walnut Creek. A company in Richmond had these for sale so I bought a couple. They are tolerant trees, I have never treated these special other than occasiona…
