Looking for Acrocomia totai or Acrocomia aculeata - depending on which you believe is the correct latin name.  The one with the fat white trunk covered in spines.

To be honest I don’t know how well they germinate - I really just want a couple of them in my yard but will take a bunch to ensure success if you’re willing to get rid of them.

A. aculeata or A. totai?

I’ve put up wanted ads for Totai in the past. I’m interested if Totai. 
 

These seeds can take years to germinate, so never throw away. I’ve been told the key is to file the shell down, it’s extremely thick.
