@Hillizard - thank you very much for website! :)

@Alan_Tampa - you're right, it's papaya, I checked. I also checked this second seed and actually this avocado, although it has a strange shape.

@DoomsDave - :D:D:D Thanks :) 

@masatepino - are these minicoconuts to be sowed or thrown into the trash?

@Bennz - I don't know this plant (Inga).

these minicoconuts are not fertile, but do not throw them into the trash yet. I might be mistaken and they are other kind of seeds. Mi coconuts abort a lot of young nuts, so frequently I see them laying on the ground, size of walnuts. at first yellow or green, and later on brown.

Put all those things in pots and let's see which come up, can ID them much easier. A few more look familiar  it i can't seem to nail them down. 

Inga is a very cool plant, i have several in my yard. Ice cream bean is another name, and it is delicious!

This looks like something I have seen before but for the life of me can't seem to remember!

 

I had just that same thing in my hand, i think I was in the keys at the time, maybe tropical almond. If it was at the old Adolf Grimal place then I truly don't remember!

I am very grateful for your help in identifying anyway! I just do not know which of these seeds, besides the bean soak before sowing?

@masatepino - Or sow these mini-cocos? And soak them?
