Palm grass

🤣 I do like Carpentaria palms but the seeds will grow anywhere, and they all grow. Making some nice green understory stuff for the moment though, deep shade so not much else would be happy here. Anyone need a couple million seedlings 🤣

Would you believe they are hard to find here ?  I finally got one this year, after 5 years of serious hunting.

If our summers wouldn't fry these to a crisp from day 1, i'd happily adopt a few, lol.

That said, at least this is a solvable challenge ( People who would happily grow these ) rather than something most people wouldn't want anywhere near their yard ( IE: White Leadball Tree = Leucanea leucocephala )

In 2022 I stayed at an AirBnB in Miami. Juvenile Christmas palms all over the yard. I kept taking about the prices on eBay.

😂 I have room in my Potential Spider Mite Factory. They'd have to be in pots for their entire lives, but they'll get light and misting and water..
