I picked up some foxtail seeds from the ground last year and threw them in a bucket. No soil, just seed. The bucket had a hole in the bottom for drainage. Today I took them out and whalla, a foxtail souffle. Good enough to eat.

Mike, that's an amazing sight! What are going to do with them?

I am soaking them in water, then break apart & pot up. Unless they are too intertwined. My intentions were to throw the seed out initially, but I forgot to and they germinated in the bucket. Foxtails are a good bread & butter palm for the common man.

I love them but I don't think a small seller will get anything for them. My firewood guy also sells plants. I asked if he wanted any rare seedlings for free. He said no, i lose money on palms, tons of foxtails I just watch grow........

The sign of a great souffle is how high it rises.......you've got an epicurian one! And you didn't even whip the seeds! Love the post title (and souffles).
