   I'm not going to go through the hassle of sending out packets of seed this time. If anyone close by wants about 4-5 lbs of seed come on by and do with them what you like. Picked this last Monday from my tree.

   I'm going to be thinning out these bromeliads and will save some if any local folks want them -- they are a short (approx. 12" to 18") green variety that spread very slowly and do great under oak canopy. Tim

    Free Phoenix Canariensis Hybrid and King Palm Seedlings

    • 2k views

    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!

    I have decided I no longer want this king palm planted where it is. It's been in the ground for 2 years from a 15 gallon. I know these have touchy roots but I wanted to offer it for free if anyone wanted to take a chance and dig it up. If so, it's yours. If not, then I'll be cutting it down this weekend. Here's a picture: I would say that it is 12 - 13 feet tall.

    More Caryota Urens Seed

    • 3.2k 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

    Sabal palmetto seedlings

    • 2.6k views

    So I took a whole batch off a florida sabal and threw a few hundered seeds in pots. They are now pushing the 2nd leaflet and I've repotted as many as I need. The rest I would like to send out in return for the generous gifts I've recieved from members here. The only catch is I have not done this before and don't know the best way to remove from the community pot or package for shipping. So they may or may not make it So if your interested I'll do my best and send these out in batches of 10 or so. Just send me your info. If you have anything to send in return thats cool too

    Howdyall: TIme to break in the Freebie Forum! I've still got a few Sabal minor seeds left, and some of you have already sent me information with your name and mailing addresses. PM me your name, mailing address, and I'll send you a free envelope with seeds in it. My plant is a trunkless type, which will probably be hardier than the trunked types. I've sent seeds all over the world, including Alabama, Texas, Florida, Croatia, England, Poland, Germany, Holland, France, Belgium, India and Indonesia. They're small seeds, so quite a number will fit in an envelope. dave

    Free Seed = Livistona sp

    • 2.2k views

    I wrote an account of my findings at http://www.palmtalk....howtopic=28646. An outcome of that afternoon was some three dozen or more surplus seed of both varieties of what appears to be some species of Livistona (that I mistook for Pritchardia initially)? and which I'm giving away free. Let me know if you're interested. I don't know how feasible this is but if possible I would like to send the entire lot to one person in the USA if he or she is willing to thereafter post smaller quantities to all those who want any in North America - as this helps to keep my international postage costs low. Below are photos of the plants in question - yet to be identified - and see…

    Some Mango seeds

    April 30, 2011 by Kumar

    • 5 replies
    • 3.8k 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…

    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…
