Where to buy seeds or palms.

The only site i found was rarepamlseeds.com, among us only and 19 year old out of business companies.

I'm looking for some variations of Trachycarpus, butia and maybe a butiagrus.

Onszaden.com ships from The Netherlands, it has a few of cold hardy palms there but mostly out of stock. Trachycarpus Fortunei is the only available seeds for now

www.achat-vente-palmiers.com/en/ French shop with a good selection.

There's also a Spanish site palmseedlings.com that has a good selection of seedlings and seeds

Also, yucca-palm in Spain ships all over the EU, as does coldpalm.nl. There is also a site called garden palms or something similar. Sometimes the box stores ie B&Q in Ireland ship canaries to Irish addresses.

If you are after young seedlings, I have bought several times from palms.de and also babypalms.eu and I am very happy with the plants that I received.

With a bit of nagging and only to the mainland.

Lol I have too much self-respect to plea, while I spend money. Besides babypalns do not send always, what you have ordered. I have personal experience of two cases, I do not claim they do it on purpose but it can and does happen from time to time. It is part of the game. One instance had been a Coccothrinax purported to be argentea and another a Chamaedorea purported to be plumosa. Latter bears too much wax on stem and petioles to be the real McCoy. Like I said not cheap neither impeccable, so that I would need sticking to them. THRINAX had sent me one a Gaussia maya, while I had ordered a Pseudophoenix sargentii! It is all part of the game, but at least they deliver to Greece.

True; babypalms is not responsive, nor very polite. He is my last option. He has decent size palms at good prices

Actually plant size is a bit deceiving, because it is disproportional to root size (smaller root size, larger aerial parts). You do not need special experience to imagine, what would happen, if you plugged the plant directly in to the ground in such condition. Whatever intial advantage relates to seemingly lower price, is canceled through the horrific transport fees. Long story short no need for us to beg for a deal with this enterprise.

True, true. I don't think I'll buy from him again. I bought a Veitchia Joannis and it was literally the only one I found on sale in Europe back then, so no choice.

The two above on either side of door are some brilliant xButyagrus specimens imported within the EU from Spain to Ireland, grown and shipped here from Yucca-Palm. They came in brilliant condition despite the heatwave and horrible fires in Spain and France. (Also in photo on the left is a lightly weathered Sabal bermudana from, I think, ColdPalm.nl last year, outside in pot all winter with no special treatment other than warmer south southeast exposure and sea-facing patio on a southern slope, growing faster than the in-ground siblings).

I ship to the EU, and I have fresh Butiagrus seeds. Been selling them on this very site for several years.
