Sabal minor Blountstown Dwarf Seeds for Sale


Recommended Posts

Posted

For sale is my current crop of seeds from all my Sabal minor Blountstown Dwarf palms. The photos below show two of these tiny palms in a planter box at the front of our house. One of them is working on another crop of seeds. This hard-to-find variety of the arguably the 2nd cold hardiest palm in the world hails from a site near the FL Panhandle town of Blountstown. Sometimes called the "rock garden palm" this Sabal reaches up to 12-18" tall and 30" wide - I can attest to that. It is cold hardy as other Sabal minors but easier to protect and has grown to seeding size in pots. Tiny palms produce tiny seeds and much fewer of them. Seeds for sale represent the combined output of all my Blountstown Dwarfs, usually fewer than 100 seeds per plant. The good news is that this variety grows true from seed. You can always find room for more palms when they are this size. 

See details below

Today I took the following photo of my original Blountstown Dwarf mother palm, the genesis of all specimens I now have. I got her over a dozen years ago and as you can see, she has reached and maintained a maximum size of 12-18" tall by 30" wide for many years. She grows new leaves regularly but does not grow bigger. If that isn't the cutest palm around, you are immune to cute.
