Canna jaegeriana
by Darold Petty- 1 follower

- 6.8k views
The good news; I collected a high elevation form of this Canna in Ecuador in 1996. It grows very well here in San Francisco, a cool, humid USDA zone 10A. The stems are about 9 feet high, the foliage is reminiscent of Heliconia, hummingbirds are crazy for the flowers, it grows all 12 months of the year, every stem makes good seeds. The seeds are viable for a long time. I have a large crop of seeds. The bad news; The foliage is damaged by wind, similar to banana. The seeds are difficult to germinate, with a low percentage of success. I tried scarification but that just seemed to increase rotting. If you have a good technique share it with me! More good news; …

I have for a beginning 50 seeds of this Livistona to give away: http://www.palmpedia.net/wiki/Livistona_sp._%27konstantinosa%27 I can send only 10 seeds to each person, mainly because I am bound to mail only whole fruits, since cleaning off seeds has proven a very difficult and time costing task. So, if intersested, shoot a pm with your address.

I just got this a few minutes ago from a guy who grew it in his apartment for about 20 years. He’s moving out of state and it needs to go in the ground so I’m giving it to someone who can plant it in the ground preferably in Palm Springs or similar area. Send me a PM if interested. Too big to ship local pickup. Palmy love to you all!

What's out there?

Dunno if I'm allowed to ask this here, but long story short I did end up losing my car/apartment and had to come back to my mom's. I could only squeeze a few of my palms in the U-Haul, and my mom dropped one of my L. Weddellaniums and her cats basically gave a hurricane cut to my C. Plumosa. I know @DoomsDave is always good for seeds, but anybody else have any cuttings/seedlings/seeds for a good cause to replenish my collection? I'll take any and everything.

Chamaedorea Radicalis

- 22 replies
- 2.5k views
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…

Livistona decora seeds

Hello Palmtalkers, Keith got me thinking with his post... I Have a L. decora that has fruited and the seeds are ripe. This is the first year it has fruited and it's very exciting. The fruits are just starting to fall off the tree. I was curious if anyone wanted some? I have many. Send me a PM and leave a note here as well. I will cut the seeds down in a few days and dole them out. If you want to send a buck or two for postage, cool- but let me get them mailed out first, I have Paypal. If you don't want to send a buck or two no worries. Thanks.

Free Hybrid Ceiba Floss Silk Seeds
by Loxahatchee Adam- 3 followers

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…
