Roughly 60 C radicalis trunking seeds.   Tomorrow we start on a couple hundred C microspadix.  Let the mass plantings begin.

when the seeds ripen on my trees then fall to the ground they sprout in about 6 months with no love or care.

great palm to germinate with ease and a very good looking one to boot.

happy sprouting guys!

Not sure if it is our short wet, but very real winters, or what, but in all of these years of seeding, I have only had 1 microspadix and 0 radicalis volunteer in the garden.   This year I decided to take nature into my own hands.

All that is left is to put the panels on Moose.   Maybe this weekend.

Seeds now resting comfortably with bottom heat, along with the 2nd batch of Black Sphinx seeds.  The first batch came up great outdoors with cool wet weather.  On this batch, it was cooler and wetter, and since I wanted to try bottom heat with the radicalis, I thought why not with another set of Black Sphinx.  Some people love precision, I love to experiment.

The experimenter came out.  I took the abundant C microspadix seeds and 1/3rd went into a pot uncleaned, 1/3rd went into a pot cleaned, and the last 1/3rd were thrown on the spot in a fairly well protected spot and loosely covered in soil.   Nothing much to take a picture of at this time, but as results pop, literally, I'll post a picture.
