Phoenix reclinata

Does anyone know where to get ahold of small P reclinatas?  While on vacation in florida I fell in love with these (along with just about every other "tropical" plant I laid eyes on).  And I couldn't help but notice that they seem to naturalize quite easily there, seedlings are easy to find under reclinata clumps/groves.  These are hard to find online yet it seems like they should be readily available considering how easily they self-propagate. 

Thank you.

Did you ever find one?

I do have some roebellini x reclinata seedlings available if you'd like to try this out.

I don't mean to hijack this post but I wouldn't mind trying a couple of the roebellini x reclinata seedlings if you still have some.

@Jesse PNW I checked on the Phoenix reclinata seeds around here earlier and they are still green.  If you're still looking, let me know and I'll try to grab you some in a month or two when they turn orange.

I germinated some Phoenix reclinata this past spring from seeds that I harvested from trees at the Santa Barbara Courthouse.  I just checked the baggie, and there are three new germinated seeds pushing up new strap leaves.  I already potted up what I wanted from this batch, so you can have these if you like.

@GoatLockerGuns is a great guy.  He likes to spread palm happiness by giving away free palm seeds/sprouts.  He sent me a few seeds and they have all sprouted.

Apparently I have a worm/bug that likes to eat my seedlings.  20210708_154452.thumb.jpg.fa0e3b6e98300477aa4a2ff0ff65bb70.jpg

@Reyes Vargas  Grasshoppers like to munch on my palm seedlings.  Usually dust the once or twice with Sevin.

Here are pictures of the seedlings after being delivered late by the postal service as usual.  Thanks.

They look good for taking nearly three weeks to get from Jacksonville FL to Mercedes TX!

Glad you got them!!!
