   NEW FREE SEED OFFER - MOST ARE FRESH!!!!

   June 28, 2013 by The Silent Seed

   • 14 replies
   • 2k views

   Time for another big giveaway! I have a lot of irons in the fire, and need to free up some space! Most of these seeds are fresh (less than 3 months or thereabouts.) Some are already planted. The ones that say "pkt" I only have one, or two packets of. (Most of the packets are a little older. Winter-ish?) No guarantees on germination, etc, since we all grow our stuff differently. With the already planted seeds, keep in mind that they will be dirty, discolored, may have a light coating of mold, etc etc, since they are in dirt, in pots. A few things to keep this offer simple, and fun: there will be a flat fee of $5 and $10 depending on how heavy your p…

   I'm going to be thinning out these bromeliads and will save some if any local folks want them -- they are a short (approx. 12" to 18") green variety that spread very slowly and do great under oak canopy. Tim

   If anyone in NorCal wants A. cunninghamiana seeds, I have several fruiting plants at the minute - both "regular" and "Illawarra" varieties. At this stage, I'm just cutting them down and throwing them in the green waste. If you'd like to come by and harvest some, you are welcome to take as many as you like. Sorry, no shipping - local growers only please!

    Palms and Exotic Plants

    If anyone has an unwanted palm or just a cool plant that needs a good home I would be glad to give it space in the garden or in my greenhouse. If you have excess seeds I also have an area set up for germination. I just love plants and hate to see a good palm or plant go to waste. I don't have the means to move large palms long distances but I can arrange transportation in some cases. Thank you again and happy gardening.

    Phoenix Dactilyfera - Variety 'Maktoum'

    March 15, 2011 by Kumar

    • 6 replies
    • 2.2k views

    P. dactylifera is for me a good germination candidate and for the past year have been busy reminding friends who go to the gulf on work or holiday to get different varieties. Today, I have got a dozen dates of the 'Maktoum' variety (apparently from the holy city of Medina). By way of description, these are quite large, brown rather than black, with a crusty peel and a dry interior that requires a bit of chewing - not one of those melt-in-your-mouth candy varieties. The taste is very agreeable though and it does not become sticky inside the mouth. The seeds are in excellent shape. I realize that this is not the best technique for cultivation but nevertheless, it is boun…

    Phoenix hybrid (reclinata x canariensis) x rupicola

    September 16, 2021 by Josue Diaz

    • 1 follower
    • 10 replies
    • 1.5k views

    I have ripening seed of this hybrid - the seed parent is a hybrid of unknown parentage. I purchased it as Phoenix reclinata, but it is likely a hybrid of reclinata and canariensis, or dactylifera and canariensis. Either way, solitary with small but yummy fruit, and very rigid leaves. The pollen parent is a Phoenix rupicola from RPS seed. I hand pollinated the flowers, but it's also likely they could have received canariensis pollen from one of several mature canariensis or from a mature dactylifera on my block.

    I have a nice healthy 2 foot (not including height of pot) tall and 3-4 foot crown width phoenix loureiroi that is free to anyone who wants it in the Orlando area. I bought it at the Leu Gardens sale as a seedling years ago because it had a variegated leaf, but this did not persist and I do not have room for a massive Phoenix in my yard unfortunately. PM me if interested.
