I don't suppose you want to play around with growing one from seed. If you do, I'll be happy to send you about 30 or so. I've been told 60% of the seeds grow into Lisa palms, but it would take a good 5 years to know for sure.

I know this is old, but I have a few questions. I am also interested in getting a sabal lisa if anyone knows where to get one. I am also curious how only 60% of them turn out to be sabal lisa from seeds. I thought these were there own species, not a morph.

downtown,

I believe the lisa variety has twice as many chromosomes which gives it that distinct characteristic.

its not its own species so 100% wont come true to seed(as I understand it)

I would be weary of purchasing a small sabal lisa with strap leaves as the chracteristics are very subtle to almost non existant until mature leaves are formed.
