You likely need a contact that grows one locally and has seeds, they are very hard to legally come by from what i have heard.

Really!? What happened did South Africa cut off seed harvesting? I'm out of the loop and genuinely curious. 

 

To the O.P. you're just going to have to call around to local palm nurseries etc.. And maybe you'll get lucky. This is a hard one to come by. I got mine down in Southern California and I had to drive it home up north to the S.F. Bay Area...

 

All of us cold weather guys love them because these are as close as we're going to get to a coconut knockoff that can take the cold.

Solid zone 9, I can expect at least one night in the mid to low twenties every year.

Hot, dry summers. Cold, wet winters.

Maybe check with JubaeaMan138.  I don't know about the legality of CA -> FL shipping.

I had read that getting them from south africa was not legal (did that change?), but there are good sources in other countries and from this thread it appears that part is right.  Maybe I'll get one soon but i think it also takes luck.
