Dave, Don't think for a second that I forgot about you. It was to be a sneak attack but I will go ahead with the goods:

Oh, wait, that isn't the one we took seeds off of.

That one was much much bigger.

Are those yours?

Dave,Same exact Sargeant Cherry you took the seeds off on Hibiscus Ave in PB a year ago(or was it two?).I guess it has grown!

Jeff, I will take a picture of my Sargeant Cherry that I purchased at the Fairchild sale in 2005. These are slow growers!

Jeff,Please find a picture of my Sargeant Cherry taken this morning. It was purchased in 2005 at Fairchild sale and has done grown slow but quicker than expected:

Ray, This is a Palm that I believe to be extremely low temperature tolerant. I know Kathryn in Louisiana is growing one with success.My place probably would not be the best for low temperature testing as I do not believe we got below 40F. most recently.

A great looking palm, any Idea exactly what lows they can take, also how much frost?

There are a few available here at the moment and wouldn't mind giving one a try if it looks like it may make it here.

Regards Andy.

Bangor, Norin Iron Zone 9a Min temp normally around -3 Degrees C, rarely -6C. Only 2 x -2.0C so far, verging on 9b this year. No snow or Frost this Winter. Several just subzero's this year, lets hope it stays this way. Normally around 5C to 10C + in winter, with lots of wind & rain. Summers usually better, 20C to 25 C occasionally 25C to 28C, also quite humid being a coastal town

Dave, Did you ever find those seeds because you need to germinate and plant them out there in Cali. I know you got plenty of these but I think the more the merrier.

Andy, I think this Palm would grow in Ireland near the Gulfstream. I think it is one of the hardiest crownshaft palms with the exception of Rhaps and Hede's.

Doubting Thomas's, This thread contains a picture of my Pseudophoenix, albeit sans inflorence.
