   chamaedorea ernesti-augusti Free Vista Pick up

   My loss is your gain, we are moving and I am not taking this palm with us and wanted to put it out there to see if anyone local may want it. This is probably about 15-20 years old and just got re-potted so that should help with the leaf tip burn as the previous pot had zero drainage holes. This is a big chamaedorea ernesti-augusti with a smaller volunteer in the same pot. Donations to our moving cause would not go unappreciated . Carl 760-639-9218

   Interested in Cassia Tomentosa seeds?

   Hello all, I have copious seed pods... all over the driveway now. I can pick a bunch up and send them out if anyone interested. There's probably 20 seeds in a pod, pods are maybe 5" long, 3/8" diameter. seeds are maybe 4mm daimeter. I'll just put them in an envelope and post. This appears to be synonymous with Senna multiglandulosa. I forget where I got this from. They seed easily all over my yard after winter. It's a small tree, maybe 10' tall max, or even a bush. Edit: Apparently it can get a bit tall. Wikipedia says 6 meters, but mine have gotten top heavy and fallen over or broken. I'll give them 3 meters...

    I've got a dozen or so Chamaedorea hooperiana seeds I want to give to a good home in Orange County, CA. Not willing to ship. Local pickup only. Germination is reportedly very easy with this species. Ideally have some rare palm seeds of your own to exchange but trade certainly not required. Thanks

    I have what looks like about 50 foxtail palm seeds and would like to offer 5 free seeds for local pickup. I am near Orlando and we can meet somewhere in Orlando or the suburbs. The fruit of the ones in the second photo is starting to rot, but that should be removed before planting regardless.

    Carpoxylon Seeds

    I have a few seeds that I probably won’t use. I would like to trade for Dypsis Lastelliana seeds. Maybe others. Cyrtostachys Renda would be nice. If I can’t get a trade, I could send the seeds for no charge. But they are large and I don’t want to eat the shipping cost. I’m guessing $10 would cover it. And I don’t do PayPal so you would have to send me cash or check.

    I have a bunch viable Zamia floridana seed that I want to give away. Membership has its privileges, IPS members will be given preference. Sorry, I am not willing to pay for the US postage for shipping. I will be attending the South Florida Palm Society Spring Sale at the Montgomery Botanical Center on March 17, any leftover seed will be donated to the free seed booth. PM me if you are interested. I really love this Florida native cycad. Although this cycad is no where near to be extinct however its native ranges have been greatly reduced by development and agriculture. A flour-like starch called arrowroot was made from this cycad in the early 20th century. …
