   I just cleaned a big batch of seed and it's ready to go. Send me your mailing address in a PM (Private message) and I'll send them to you, free of charge. Please put "Free Cocothrinax seed" in the message line for your PM so I know easily what it's for. I'll send them all over the world. Last year I sent them to all over the U.S., as well as (but not limited to) Poland, Saudi Arabia and South Korea. I think a few to Russia, too. And Texas, Arizona, California, Massachusetts. These are small seeds, so I usually stick a good number in the envelope. Some of you got some last year, and, apparently didn't sprout, so don't be afraid to ask again. Or if they …

   Extra Germinated Seeds (Phoenix dactylifera 'Ajwa')

   April 4, 2022 by GoatLockerGuns

   • 3 replies
   • 1k views

   I have a ton of extra germinated Phoenix dactylifera 'Ajwa' seeds to give away. Darn near 100% germination showing through the baggie. These were personally sourced from dates that I ate. If anyone is not familiar with the "Ajwa" varietal, they are from Saudi Arabia (Medina I believe), and are smaller and much darker than the typical 'Medjool' or 'Delget Noor' varietals you usually see in stores. They are also addictively delicious. I got these from a local Middle Eastern food store here in San Antonio. I have attached a picture comparing the 'Ajwa' seeds with seeds from other varietals. I understand that since Phoenix dactylifera are heterozygous, the offspring pl…

   Free Hybrid Ceiba Floss Silk Seeds

   One of my big tree interests is Floss Silks and the numerous species that make up the group: Ceiba: speciosa, crispiflora, chodatii, insignis, rubriflora, schottii, pubiflora, jasminodora, and others. I have approx 60 grafted trees in the ground here of unique flowers that I’ve found exploring around. With those, I’ve made numerous hand-pollinated crosses to try and obtain new unique flowers. I don’t have the room to grow enough of each cross out to see all the combinations, so this past summer I distributed approx 1,000 tagged seedlings throughout the area for people to grow in their yards. I have approx 10-12 of each cross in peoples yards (see map of locat…

    Free Orange Geiger - Cordia sebestena - seeds

    • 3.3k 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.

    2 Free Dypsis Plumosa

    • 476 views

    I have two 5gal Dypsis plumosa for someone with a warmer locale (Southern California). I have tested them in Fresno for 2 winters and although they survive, they take a beating. They will not be good long-term plants here. These two came from Darold (who i believe got them from someone in San Diego, so they've made their rounds throughout California already. They were struggling big time in chilly San Francisco. In Fresno, they love our summer but struggle in winter. These will do best, I think from LA southward in a frost free climate. Pick up only in Fresno, or we could arrange delivery in Southern CA. feel free to message me here.

    I have some extra germinated Livistona chinensis seeds to give away. At least three seeds showing germination through the baggie (possibly more to come). These were personally sourced from a palm growing in Saint Petersburg, Florida over Christmas. I am willing to ship for free to the lower 48; just agree to give them a good home.

    Centaurothamnus maximus cuttings

    • 1.2k views

    I was given this very rare flowering plant from Saudi Arabia about 3 years ago, & it just loves San Diego's climate. It's very hard to start from seed, but I need to reduce it's size. So if anyone would like to take a whack rooting some cuttings, they would be welcome to. Otherwise, they go in the recycling bin. Local pickup only. It's a very striking plant with pure white under the leaves & purple flowers that the bees love to wrestle with. PM me if interested.

    Hey guys, I have eight Sabal Palmetto Seedlings which I got from eBay in April for $84. They are in ground but since they are very small and it rained heavily these days I can easily dig them out. The reason why I want to give them away is that I don't have space for them anymore. So, if you are in the Houston area just reply to this email and those seedlings will be yours. Of course that I will give them away for free but please hurry because I need to give them away soon.
