Seed Id needed

[maxum2610]

I picked up these seeds in Alicante Spain. The gardeners had blown them all into a big pile so no way to know which palm they came from. They took over a year to germinate, more like two.

I'm thinking the round ones could be Butia Odorata and the long ones Butia Yatay? Any help would appreciated.

No one...really?

No tiene que ser nada fácil averiguarlo con tan pocos detalles

Las redondas también pueden ser de sabal, es lo único que puedo aportar

I think you're right about the round ones - the seeds and sprouts look like Butia odorata.  Not sure about the odd shaped seeds.  Could be yatay but they look a little like Latania loddigesii seeds.

I agree with the round ones looking like butias. The middle ones I'm also not sure of. I would say they don't look like yatay.

Saba seeds are smaller and flatter. These are big, perhaps 1.5 to 2 cm, and round.
