DoomsDave Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Hello, everyone: I have a nice crop of hybrid Brahea seeds, free shipping worldwide to all who want, no charge. These are large seeds, so I won't be able to get many in an envelope. As the pictures show, this thing is big. It was planted from a very sad-sack 7 gallon in 2006 more or less. It's now the better part of 30 feet (10 m) tall, about 12 - 15 feet (4 - 5 M) across the crown, and about 60 cm (2.5 feet) across the base. The Shoe is 32 cm, 12.5" long. I really don't know if these will come true or not. This palm is far bigger than either of the parents, which I think are B. armata and B. brandeegii. Full sun, regular water for fastest growth, will survive serious desert conditions. (Sahara? Saudi Arabia? Atacama? No problem!) Please don't plant under utility wires! I've been advised to plant each seed in a deep pot or cup to avoid disturbance of the roots when small. I've also been advised to wait till the plants form a number of leaves before trying to move them; they survive root breakage better that way.

DoomsDave Posted August 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Yo yo yo yo! Mailed the seeds today! About 30 envelopes, each with about 9 seeds in it. They're a bit big, and I want to spread them around. NOTE A FEW THINGS: The seeds are covered with a shell; if yuo throw them in the water they'll float. Crack off the shell and the little nut will sink. Plant each one in a separate small pot, like a Dixie Cup. This way, yuo'll be able to transplant them easier. They take about a week in the US and 2 -3 overseas, usually. I didn't clean them (hands hurt, alas) but they should be good. And if not, well, no harm no foul. I've been advised to expect germination over the winter; some this year, some later. 4 Quote Let's keep our forum fun and friendly.

DoomsDave Posted August 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 So let me know when you get them, and when they sprout. I've had the gratification of seeing other seeds sent to others grow up and hope the same happens here. Keep a couple of other things in mind: These are hybrids and they may turn out to be either non-viable or have a low viability rate. Hope not. The little nuts sink like stones. The goal was to spread them as far and wide across the globe as possible. There's more seeds but I want to give others who might be interested a chance to get some, too. Thanks to all for your participation in this great experiment. 2 Quote Let's keep our forum fun and friendly.
