What's out there?

Dunno if I'm allowed to ask this here, but long story short I did end up losing my car/apartment and had to come back to my mom's. I could only squeeze a few of my palms in the U-Haul, and my mom dropped one of my L. Weddellaniums and her cats basically gave a hurricane cut to my C. Plumosa. 

 

I know @DoomsDave is always good for seeds, but anybody else have any cuttings/seedlings/seeds for a good cause to replenish my collection? I'll take any and everything.

@JohnAndSancho I don't have anything special but I am going to have seeds from this Phoenix hybrid pretty soon.  My male palm didn't flower this year so I hand pollinated with one of my pygmy date palm so it should be a cool hybrid.  When they are ready you are more than welcome to some if you want.

Welp lol. Don't be mad. There's a lot of seeds still in that box. The succulents are doing great in a window. Kittens got the bromeliads, I tried to keep them moist but they were drying out on me. The Chambeyronia haven't sprouted, I'm starting to think I cooked them when I was using a heating pad to germinate? I've got a nice community pot of C. Radicalis, the biggest ones have put out 2 leaves already. Macrocarpa and Elegans have been in community pots on a heat mat but still haven't popped. Clivia and the orchids are doing ok.

Be patient with the Chambeyronias. If the seeds are still firm between your fingers they may yet sprout. I’ve sprouted hundreds and some take their time.
