Respectfully this post is from over 15 years ago, and they haven't even been online here in nearly five years. It's safe to say are they are not available. I took the liberty of going to their website and they don't have any in stock either.

Sorry wasn’t paying attention.

I have seeds collected earlier this year, if you’re interested.

Just plain ol’ Copernicia alba.  They all look slightly bluish to me.  I actually didn’t realize there was a separate, blue variant.  Do you have a link?

I bought these from North Texas Cold Hardy Palms before they went out of business. I believe they got the seeds from Christian Faulkner.

I think they all have a silver-bluish hue to the leaves, but that does look slightly more blue than normal.  Mine are probably normal.  I don’t recall anything outstandingly different about them.

This kills me.  He brought one of these for me on his last Houston run but I was watching my texts and he was messaging me on here.  I didnt realize until after he left.  This guy changed my whole outlook on buying plants.  If I see something I want I buy it immediately. He had so much stuff I was planning on getting but ultimately never had the chance.  It's a shame.

You definitely had to be on your toes. His runs could go from “maybe in 3 weeks” to “on my way now” in a 24 hour period. A lot of guys couldn’t handle his way of operating but for the patient and dedicated he was gold. Between the 2021 freeze and Covid we’ve lost a lot of options. Thankfully guys like BigFish are stepping up.
