Sabal palmetto 'filamentous' palms give away
by Matthew92- 2 followers
- 8 replies
- 1.5k views
I've got quite a few Sabal palmettos I grew from seed off a tree with unusually stringy/filamentous leaves in Pensacola, FL. These sprouted in early 2017 and are now outgrowing their pots. I've run out of places to plant, and was thinking of selling, but I'd like to give them away to fellow palm enthusiasts who will appreciate them and provide updates/photos on their progress as they grow. I am very interested to see if they turn out to have the filamentous characteristics as the parent. Here's the thread where I originally commented on about this tree and the seeds I grew (Note: my comments are further down in the thread and are not pertaining to the tree for which …

Archontophoenix sp. seeds
by quaman58- 3 replies
- 1k views
Hi all, I have a limited number of seeds from a palm in my yard. It was purchased years ago at a big box store as “tropical foliage”. I assumed it was cunninghamiana, but it developed some whitish coloring under the leaves. Bottom line is that it is the most attractive palm year in, year out in the garden, regardless of time of year. Robust trunk and large open canopy. A beautiful palm, if the seed remains true to the parent. Local pickup preferred.

Brachychiton rupestris?
by Patrick- 1 reply
- 908 views
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…

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

Chamaedorea Radicalis

I got a bunch of seeds from DoomsDave in 2016 which turned into 22 seedlings of which I put 2 or 3 each in 8 bigger pots and have given them away to friends so that I now have 2 left. I'm keeping one myself. Anyone reading this forum can have the remaining one for free but you'd have to pay for shipping (or pick it up). No point asking if you're outside Europe, it'd bee too expensive to send. It's also more fun to have in Europe maybe since it isn't available anywhere in Europe as far as I have seen. Cheapest shipping I can find is PostNord for 122 SEK within Sweden and 351 SEK (~€35) to the European countries I checked (e g France, Germany, Denmark, Norway). Cold ha…

Free Dypsis lanceolata seeds - mailed worldwide! 1 2

As he noted in his thread, Mike Wardlow was nice enough to give me his whole crop of Dypsis lanceolata seeds, and I took them home. Some I'll sprout and use as PSSC meeting party favors; others I'll mail to you if you send me a PM (Private message) with your mailing address and "Free Dypsis lanceolata seed" in the message. I've gotten seeds from Mike before and they generally germinate quite fast. They don't keep long, so I'm planning on giving everything away. Stored seed from a while back hasn't grown nearly as well as it did when fresh. This is a smaller Dypsis, a bit on the skinny side, marginal away from the beach, but should also be a nice house plant…

Trachycarpus wagnerianus strap leaf
by RyManUtah- 3 replies

I have several more of these than I anticipated on having, and more than my needs. Seeds sown from pure strain, hand pollinated by Jeff St Gelias of the PNW Palm Society In British Columbia. I am looking for anybody who would like to give this palm a try, yours for the price of shipping. I do not have certs so it needs to be USA only, sorry. Can send bare root to save on shipping or in the current pots. The locusts like to feed on these, so watch out for that. PM if interested. The access will likely be guerilla planted.

Free few Phoenix porphyrocarpa seeds.

I have managed to gather few not malformed seeds. Morher plant looks like a CIDP with straight (not arching) leaves, which are very long; an ideal form for creating canopy. It has remained so far free of any infestation by the formidable rpw, despite that it gets butchered every summer by the neighbour (wounds on palms is an invitation to a feast, during the season the rpw is active), maybe it hides some antibiosis or antixenosis properties, who knows, but fact is fact. It bears super long flower stalks fruits in full maturity taste like real dates. Below you can see those seeds on lower line compared with seeds from a probably feral form of dactylifera. There are only 9 …
