How long would it take for it to produce viable seeds if I had a male Needle Palm to pollinate it?

Good question.   I would think it could vary, based on the individual plant.

Wow. Did you trim all the needled off your "Pam".

Once pollination takes place, they could be ripe by late autumn or certainly late winter or early spring. Much depends on weather/climate.

I had to like 2 years ago 😭 My dog kept getting near it and poking himself on it so I trimmed it.
