My mule palm is approx 35' tall overall is situated between a group of Syagrus (Queen) and a group of Butia Capitata. It constantly puts on huge seed pods.
I recently patiently waited for each seed to ripen fully and become plump and juicy and now I have cleaned about 1000 seed of "Butiagrus". I guess I will plant them .....and hope at least one germinates. However, my palm looks better than the photos I have seen in San Antonio.....with the leaves being longer , recurved , and more graceful. I'm sorry I don't have a photo to exhibit here. I could have sold it a few years ago to someone in N.C. for $1500 but I'm glad I didn't..........Bob
I live on 12 acres in Central Florida about half way between Tampa and Walt Disney World.I have seed colonies of over 60 varieties of cycads. I have over one half acre of variegated cycads and I make many hybrids as well.

Rob is it true that type of palm looks different from palm to plam? It is a palm that I was planning on getting next. maybe a 15 gallon
