I had a Licuala grandis; didn't make it.
Tried some Pritchardia hillebrandii (I think that was the name) seeds a couple of years ago.
None germinated.
Will look forward to seeing a pic of yours, Scott.

Will keep you posted.
Have that and a 16"-24" Red Sealing Wax palm coming.
Of all the seedlings I had growing I have two left alive. I think I may have done them in with too much care keeping them in warm humid portable greenhouse with no air circulation inside and the leaves got mold on them.

Oooh, a sealing wax palm that size will have some color already 😀
Yeah, air circulation is critical.
They're used to typhoons. 😆
I have one red sealing wax palm seedling, the only one that germinated.
So far so good.
But it's early yet. 😆 😆

I knew you had some seeds.....how long did it take to germinate? and how big is it so far?

Took a couple of months, I think.
It's all of 8 inches tall now. 😆
