Check out Floribunda Palms for Dictyocaryum seedlings. Rare palm seeds sold me seeds last spring that germinated well. Good Luck.

Hi John, I'm not sure if you meant this as a joke :) (as Jeff obviously did) or if you really are looking for these seedlings?

D. lamarckianum is not really known to grow in FL. It is a high elevation palm that needs cool nights and more consistant temperatures. It probably will not tolerate wide swings in temps and high heat like you get in FL.

Lodoicea maldivica is a VERY rare palm - there are only a handful growing in select gardens in South Florida. The giant seeds are also very expensive and hard to find. Then you have to wait for a year or longer to see if it might germinate.

You might have luck with Phoenicophorium borsigianum and Areca catechu dwarf in a really good microclimate in your area. Check Floribunda for availability.

I don't know anything about Cyphosperma tanga or Dypsis bejofa but I'm sure someone here can help you locate seedlings ...if they are available.

Good luck on your hunt!

Phoenicophorium seedlings are currently available on ebay if you're still interested. I'm giving one a try.
