DoomsDave 8,506 Report post Posted November 4, 2015 These are one of the hardiest palms, they'll grow in Oklahoma, and elsewhere you don't expect to find palms. They're worth a try outdoors in places like Northern Ireland, England, southern Sweden, Long Island, Virginia Beach, Washington DC, etc.There's different forms of them, but they're all relatively small.Maybe Steve can elaborate as to what form his seeds/seedlings are from . . . .

yabazid 116 Report post Posted March 24, 2016 I recieved the seeds thanks Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
earthworm73 8 Report post Posted May 3, 2016 Steve I received the seeds like back on the 22nd of April. I sowed them on the 24th. I used scarification and I put them into damp paper towels inside of plastic Ziploc baggies after soaking them. I looked this morning at I saw about 4 out of like 15 have "eyed" a sprout! So basically 1 week for germination! Just wondering if I should let the ones that have sprouted stay in the baggie a little longer before moving them to containers with growing mix or take them out now and put them into the container?

Stevetoad 1,711 Report post Posted May 4, 2016 Most of my seedlings I let get pretty meaty in perlite for a while then pot them up. Mostly because I'm lazy but it seems to work ok. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mostly because I'm lazy but it seems to work ok. Okay thanks. Yeah this is the first time I actually have been able to germinate Sabal anything ever. Most of my attempts resulted in growing mold and not palms. I'll just wait a couple of weeks before potting up. I checked this evening and noticed my s. uresana seeds are in the exact same stage as these s. minors and it makes more sense to pot them all up at the same time. Make one big batch of seeds.
