Cycad sale

Featured Replies

Well I find myself running out of room so I need to sell some plants. Why you ask? So I can buy more plants of course! I have a problem🤣

All plants are grown in full sun so no acclimation needed! Most plants I have grown from 1 or 2 leaf seedlings.

I have a full time job and I am not a nursery just a hobbyist so plants are for local pick up and cash only. I am located in Clairemont, San Diego.

619-453-1240 text or private message are best.

Free 5 gal. Butia Capitata or plumeria cutting to customers while supply last!

look forward to meeting some if you and thanks for looking!

sale starts 3:45 pm Fri. and Sat. 8:00 am

Man if you shipped...

Very nice selection of well grown plants. If only there was a way to get them to Mexico….

Thanks Brian! Right! That would be difficult to say the least. How do you get plants into Mexico? Are you able to order from online nurserys with the proper certificates etc?

Great question! Almost everything I have I germinated from seeds. Trying to get plants imported here would be extremely difficult.

I figured as much but at least you can import seed! I love growing stuff from seeds and watching them germinate and grow into nice big plants! Most of my Cycads I grew from 1 and 2 leaf seedlings! Lots of them are getting big now and I have had some so long (20+years) I cant remember where I got some of them from lol.

I forgot to post the pics of the Trispinosus liners with a few Horridus mixed in. Also except for the middel x dyer x middel all liners are not seedling liners but the next size up. They also have been in the bigger liners for a couple years so they are ready to be potted up to 5 gal./citrus talls or the ground!

Hey Steve!

It was great to meet you this afternoon.  Thought I might chime in and let everyone know that you have a nice collection of cycads for sale.  They all look very clean and well grown.  And if you shop cycads at all you know that these plants are selling well below retail.  I had to jump on it!  Good luck with your sale see you around the docks sometime!

  • Author

Hey Chris, It was nice to meet you as well! Plant peeps are the best👍Yeah Im not trying to get rich over here just trying to make room for more plants coming in. Your welcome over anytime and yes maybe see you at the docks!
