Comparing Trachycarpus Seeds

Recommended Posts

The following is a photo showing the seed size of Trachycarpus princes, Tesan, Winsan ,Chusan .

It is interesting to see such big differences among various trachycarpus varieties.Among them, Tesan is the biggest and Trachycarpus princeps the smallest.

I remember Kristof once mentioned in a posting that Tesan seeds are much bigger than the local Trachycarpus seeds from Belgium and the white powder is less. I really dont know how white the seeds there look like. Actually, Tesan aslo have white stuff on the outer skin and after washing and cleaning, some white stuff may fall off.

I am not sure if others find the same interesting thing.

That's a great comparison Garry, thank you.
