Thanks Gary and Steve for the Sunkha pollen. Hopefully we will see some results.

First photo Butia odorata emasculated and receptive. Second photo is after pollination.

I have tried the Jubaea once but the pollen was not processed and was fried by the time it got to me.

Did they all abort on you Alberto? Or did they hold and the seeds were all woody inside? Succeed or fail. I am just happy I have the opportunity to give it a try.

All the flowers on several infloresceces of my B.eriospatha aborted. But I´ll try again in future and also try on other Butia species... Some specimen (individual) trees are more receptive then others and maybe some "species" also. Let´s hope it will work on B.odorata, that proved receptive to P. cocoides before!! :hmm:
