Free Hura crepitans -Dynamite/Sandbox Tree- Seeds
by Loxahatchee Adam- 6 replies
- 3.9k views
I have some fresh Hura crepitans seeds available off my tree here. I've yet to hear any do their namesake dynamite pop though. The pods are all maturing on the tree and opening on their own. When I take the seeds out, they are soft/leathery shelled and white. No hard brown seed coat. I'm not sure if they will air dry to that or? They feel firm and fully formed inside though. I attached a pic (seeds laid out are from larger pod). I'm not sure if it's better to wait till they harden off first or send them fresh and soft. Anyone have any insight they can post here? Send a PM if interested.

Some Mango seeds
by Kumar- 5 replies
- 3.9k views
I have a half dozen Mango seeds of variety Gulab Khas. This is a large leafed (the sort that produces a red flush of new leaves) early mango variety that ripens to a yellow fruit with a red top no less brilliant than a chambeyronia flush. The fruit is more sour than sweet and is reasonably large. If any one wants a pair or more, let me know. Naturally these seeds though capable of producing vigorous seedlings and large trees are no good for producing quality fruit(though the unripe fruit is equally delicious). Here is a photo of the mango type, taken off the internet. An interesting write up of this variety can be read at http://www.urdustudies.com/pdf/15/30seng…

Free Albizia saman / Samanea saman : Monkey Pod / Rain Tree Seeds
by Loxahatchee Adam- 3 replies
- 3.8k views
I have a bunch of free Albizia saman / Monkeypod seed pods. They are fast-growing, nitrogen-fixing trees that get a wide canopy. They are known as rain trees as the leaves fold together and close every night or when it rains/is dark-ish cloudy. I attached pictures of the parent tree, the pink and white puff flowers, and the seed pods. The last picture is one I have that's about 1.5 years old, around 10 ft tall and starting to branch. They are cold hardy to zone 10a and, while in the same genus, do not have the invasive issues like Mimosa trees up north.

Free Caryota urens seed
by Kumar- 1 follower
- 10 replies
- 3.5k views
It's that time of the year (again) when a stalk of our solitary Caryota urens begins ripening - and that means an unending litter of fruit all day everywhere and plenty of curses and grumbles as the inevitable cleanup is ordered - not to mention a freeze in our relations with the neighbours. Instead of wasting all the fruit, I thought I'll give it away on Palmtalk free. Send me a PM if you have interest. I'm afraid though I will have to send the fruit whole because I havn't found a way to clean the stuff without hurting my hands . Typically each fruit has 1-2 seeds. The fertility is proven and the seeds are on average a week old. These seeds are rather heavy so …

Free Orange Geiger - Cordia sebestena - seeds
by Loxahatchee Adam- 12 replies
- 3.5k views
I have a bunch of Cordia sebestena (Orange Geiger) seeds that just ripened off the tree. They are the uncleaned fruits. Because of their size, shipping overseas will require a small box and will be in the $15 range and will need to be reimbursed. Shipping within US is free. Gathered Feb 2016. Send a PM if interested. I have a few in the ground in far western Loxahatchee. They have not been here for a true freeze yet, but have come through multiple nights in the 36-38ºF (2-3ºC) range the past few years with no problems. Frost has burnt the leaves when it's occurred, but no harm to the tree or branches themselves.

First Roystonea Harvest
by Kumar- 12 replies
- 3.4k 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.

Rhopalostylis sapida 'chatham island'
by MattyB- 10 replies
- 3.3k views
Chatham Island is the more robust sapida that grows faster and takes more sun. Darold was nice enough to send me a bunch of these last year and as Summer is fast approaching I'm thinking I wanna get them out of the greenhouse and into the nice cool shade. They seem to do much better on my shadey porch than in the hot greenhouse but I only need a couple of them, not 10! Anyway, I've got several of them to give away and pass along the generosity that Darold has started. Come on by and get one or two if you want. They're in 4" pots and could use a little TLC, but hey, they're free!!!!!! PM me. six one nine 206-7782 I'm stealing this photo from Paul. I think one of…

More Caryota Urens Seed
by Kumar- 9 replies
- 3.3k views
I'm off to Calcutta for a week this Saturday which means I get to clean up the fruiting mess that our caryota urens has been making for the last few weeks. If anyone wants any caryota seed, let me know; I've already sent out heaps so I wouldn't normally bring back any (more so in this humid weather) but if you have a caryota fetish that can't wait, let me know and assuming the infructescence has not been cut down, I will collect some for you. I wonder whether any of the seed that I have sent to PT members germinated? It's been two months, so results should be clear. PS - Photos of the mother tree are here - http://www.palmtalk.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=28205
