Good afternoon, everyone! Does anyone have a lead on where to get these desert palms? I would really like to get one. I've seen a couple old postings and tried to message the people but to no avail. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I was gifted 3 seeds from a friend’s order of 10 seeds:

One sprouted and is doing well now with three silver leaves.

Not sure if the seeds are still in stock.

And not at all sure how the palm will do in my wet tropics but so far so good.

Thank you for the response, Cindy! I'm not very good at the seed thing yet. Still working on that. I was hoping for a live plant. Unless you want to part with your 3 leaf silver one (joking) You are very lucky to have one. These palmss are not easy to find.I'm realizing!

I hope you succeed in your quest.

I am happy to buy seedlings or even larger palms but really a challenge in Puerto Rico so I have learned to enjoy the germination process.

With help from so many on this forum you will succeed with fresh seed if you are super patient!

I have already had so many members help me! They truly are a great resource no doubt. Thank you for your advice and good luck with that little one! They seem like tough palms.
