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.

I hope you will have more succes then I with my several atempts of hybridization B. eriospatha with P. sunkha pollen!!!

I will now try on my B. catarinensis.

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:
