Copernicia rigida Seedlings for Sale

[PalmatierMeg]

I saw Copernicia rigida in habitat when I visited Cuba in 2014 and it instantly became my favorite Copernicia. Our tour bus stopped along the side of a road and we walked past a dump and abandoned hobo camp through brush which opened up into a scrubby field populated by dozens of C. rigida, many of them looking like giant blue-green shaving brushes that my Dad and grandfather once used to lather up for a shave. Simply awesome palms. I was disappointed none of them were seeding.

The eight seedlings for sale were germinated last year from seeds that came from Tim in Key West. He included a photo of the mother palm in his listing. Seedlings have 3-4 strap leaves covered with tiny red-gold saw teeth. They are in 1- or 2g pots and ready to be stepped up or planted. See below for sale summary.
