Cool!  How and where will you plant them?  Do these grow outside deep, humid tropics?

Actually i want to make them all a bonsai palm in pot and just want to pick 1 or 2 in the ground(not bonsai). And salak palm can grow in subtropical and tropical climates, like im in the java island its very easy to grow i have one in front yard, but in subtropical it needs very good care because this palm is not very cold hardy, and this needs to be grow outside it needs a warm area and can grow in filtered light:lol:.

Yea, they just germinate for 3 weeks covered with a wet tissue inside a container, and the tissue is used to germinate a seed and using this method it can germinate faster than grow in the soil. Like my orange seeds and dates seed they just shoot a roots in a 2 week.

Here’s a link to a previous discussion on Salacca. Some hefty sharp spines……quite unforgiving.
