I'm getting roughly an 80% germination rate but that's only after a month. It will hopefully increase to 100% in the coming weeks. If for some reason you're seeds aren't germinating, let me know and we'll figure it out.

Here are a few next to other green palms. You can already see the blue color even at a young age.

    I started this batch just prior to shipping out seeds to all of you and they're FINALLY shooting upward. This part seems to take so long, but you all should be very close behind.

    First sprout in Arizona, USA!  This blue species is soon to become a worldwide phenomenon. That's how you go about helping to preserve a rare and desirable species from extinction... Spread the seeds around in different climates,and there will always be some original genetic material to work with if extinction ever becomes an issue.👍 Thanks for making these available,and helping to insure the survival of the species.

    4 of my 5 have sprouted now. Yes they do take a while to send up leaves but sprouting is fast.
