Chamaedorea oreophila, (was C. monostachys)
by Darold Petty- 5 replies
- 2k views
This palm is considered the third most frost hardy, after C. radicalis and C. microspadix. Unfortunately in my very cool, humid microclimate the palm is afflicted by thrip. I gave away previous plants to a friend in a hot, inland area (Brentwood, CA) and the thrip problem went away, his palms are growing well. I purchased these three 1-gallon plants shown in the photograph as a second attempt to grow this species in my garden. They are mature, and two have flowerstalks. However they have been damaged by thrip also. I don't care to attempt to control the thrip with chemical pesticide so I offer them for free. The only condition is no shipping; you mus…

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.

Hello all. I have some D lanceolata seeds that should be ripening up soon. These pictures are from the beginning of January. As you can see the seeds are still green and not ripe yet. When they are ripe, you are more than welcome to them. The only catch is that the tree is in Leilani Estates, Hawaii and I am not. So this is an offer for the local folks over there. Just send me a PM if you are interested and I will give you directions. Thanks.

Free seeds of reclinata x dactylifera
by Phoenikakias- 1 reply
- 944 views
I have another batch from this cross, actually a neighbouring inflorescence to the one, I had on purpose cross-pollinated, received apparently also dactylifera pollen. I made the mistake however to let the derived infructescence for to long hanging, which enabled an attack of seed borers. So fruits/seeds are not tradable but after disinfection I suppose that in a sutisfying number of seeds embryo has been saved and those seeds have good prospects to germinate. Only a small gesture from me to mitigate the sorrow of european growers because of expected or confirmed winter losses. Europe only for financial and phytosanitary reasons. Send me a PM with your address.

The palm below has been in my garden since about 2004, when I got it as a 15 gallon. It's now about 10 feet tall. This is a great species for those PalmTalkers who must contend with heat and cold. It's native to Argentina, where it experiences both. If you're in the Mediterranean region in Europe, England, maybe even Holland, these are worth a try in the ground. Likewise in the Southeastern US where a lot of cool palms are marginal; South Carolina, and southern Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Northern Florida. Try them in West Texas, Arizona. They will take cool, too, in British Columbia, northern California, coastal Oregon and Washington. And, anyw…

My Caryota mitis have dropped 200,000+ seeds and are still at it. Now have seedlings germinating also. Anyone in the area that can pick up and wants these is welcome to them for free.

Hello, everyone: I have a nice crop of hybrid Brahea seeds, free shipping worldwide to all who want, no charge. These are large seeds, so I won't be able to get many in an envelope. As the pictures show, this thing is big. It was planted from a very sad-sack 7 gallon in 2006 more or less. It's now the better part of 30 feet (10 m) tall, about 12 - 15 feet (4 - 5 M) across the crown, and about 60 cm (2.5 feet) across the base. The Shoe is 32 cm, 12.5" long. I really don't know if these will come true or not. This palm is far bigger than either of the parents, which I think are B. armata and B. brandeegii. Full sun, regular water for fastest growth,…
