   Aloha! I have a ton of areca palm seeds in my neighborhood that are yellow to red on trees if anyone wants them. Happy to ship for the cost of shipping. I can put them in baggies with a little spag moss to ensure moisture or leave them in the fruit if you prefer. Let me know in the next week or so while the picking is good.

(Pending a couple new PM's that I have not answered yet - and will, in a minute.)

   Hi. I am helping out the local Punta Gorda elementary school- Sallie Jones- with a landscape project. The school building is basically new but due to budget cuts, there is nothing for landscaping. I am gratefully accepting any donations of cycads, palms or other plants to make the school a beautiful place. I am on the west coast of Florida, 100 miles south of Tampa. I will drive in FL to pick up material and will pay for shipping out of my own pocket. If you have something you would like to donate, please pm. Thanks. Vincent Bodnar

    Hello All, After just having my second winter in a row of falling into the teens, I am having a zone denial giveaway of some of the palms I have been keeping in my greenhouse, but will never be safe in the ground here in the 8B/9A border region. I am located just northwest of Houston (Magnolia, TX) and am giving away the following to anybody that wishes to give them a better home (preferably closer to the coast, inside the loop or as a patio plant). There will be no shipping of these palms, so PM me if you wish to pick any up. 4 Beccariophoenix Alfredii (~3 gallon pots) 2 Beccariophoenix ????

    I have some fresh (ripe and still on the palms) seeds of C. adscendens and C. tepejilote. Free to anyone in the US - respond here or in PM with address. For anyone not in the US, international shipping has become a bit expensive, but I might consider it if there is some interesting seed offered in trade. -tom

    Free uncleaned seeds (fruit is about small regular grape size) of Gmelina philippensis. Isn't really a vine, more throwing out long arm branches. Best to look up online. Free mailing within US. Probably best not to ship this overseas because of the uncleaned fruit. Send PM if interested.

    I have sent out some seed to a few fellow collectors recently. One person didn't want them as he has too many plants germinating as is. So I have one more stalk of seed (maybe 1000 seed) I will be happy to send out. This is not an easy plant to germinate as it does best when sown right away when ripe. This seed is 4 months old but with 1000 you should get something.
