   I have a small Syagrus cearensis that's in a too small pot that I don't have room for but don't want to use up all of my potting mix to pot it up. PM me if you want to come pick it up from me.

    Brachychiton rupestris?

    • 681 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…

    Free Seeds (Livistona chinensis)

    October 30, 2022 by GoatLockerGuns

    • 1 reply
    • 238 views

    I have some extra Livistona chinensis seeds to give away (10 seeds total). These were personally sourced from a palm growing in Cape Coral, Florida in early October. I have already germinated a few seeds from this batch using the baggie/heat pad method (it took 2 1/2 weeks to first germination), so I know the seeds are fresh. These seeds have been cleaned of fruit flesh, and were pre-soaked in warm water for 48 hours. I am willing to ship for free to the lower 48; just agree to give them a good home. PM me if interested (first come, first serve).

    Due to an upcoming relocation and severe reduction of space for plants, I need to give away a large portion of my container garden. This includes stuff from 8cm pots all the way up to 50cm pots and 1-2m tall. Lots of stuff, including an assortment of ptychosperma, caryota, hyophorbe, pritchardia, archontophoenix, wodietia, normanbya, chamaedorea, dypsis, etc. I'll be keeping a few things, but need to keep my wife happy as well I'm in a non-fire ant area so you can relocate the pots without concern for that. The plants are all in Redland Bay, and need to go by the end of the weekend of the 20th of July. You are welcome to give me a call and come by to have a l…
