Another seed question

Featured Replies

Hey, all, this palm has been flowering for three or four years now. I’m always waiting to see flowers or something, but not much in the way of a flower ever seems to develop before what I assumed are the flower buds just begin dropping off the fluorescence. So I was taking a look this morning and actually pulled one of these buds off that were loose and cut it in half. It’s really small, so it’s kind of hard to tell, but I was wondering if these were actually fully developed seeds. If so, they develop quickly, as this plant just begun flowering six or seven weeks ago. Does anybody else have experience with these producing viable seed? Here’s a couple visuals, thanks in advance!

ID please. Looks like it might be Chamaedorea tepejilote.

Looks like some kind of chamaedorea,  looks to be a female. May need to hand pollinate with pollen from a male. If you don't have that maybe try another chamaedorea male to try to hybridize.

Bret tagged it as Pinanga javana.

Correct; Pinanga javana. I think I may have just answered my own question based on a picture online.
