Anyone know of a source for 3-5 Gal Syagrus Litoralis (Silver Queen) palm ?

I suspect getting 3 -5 gallon sized ones might be a challenge. This guy http://www.collectorpalms.com/ in Texas has seedlings anyway. Shipping is cheaper and you can by more of em for the same dollar value.
Cheers, Barrie.

Thanks Barrie. I have seen his listing before. He changes prices quicker than anyone I have seen. Two months ago he was selling the seeds for $8.49 for 25 seeds. Now he wants $8.49 for 5 seeds...

WOW ... maybe the new seeds are dipped in gold?
Cheers, Barrie.

I searched his history. About three months ago he listed them 50 for $9.99, two months ago 25 for $8.49... Now 5 for $8.49 I think I'll find a different source...

Thanks Steve. $24 for 100 seed sounds much better.

I have 20 seeds I am currently trying to germinate. I have had one pop so far and only want 3 plants, you are welcome to as many seeds as you want. Let me know.
Not the pot I was expecting........

Woa
I want those seeds.
I am currently looking for Santa Catarina ones.
Do you know if those seeds are the Santa Catarina form?
Actually, Syagrus litoralis is less hardy than the Santa Catarina form... And the Santa Catarina Syagrus is much more difficult to find !
