Offering Palm Tree Seeds

8 years ago

I have been collecting palm tree seeds from "historic" trees in Los Angeles and Hollywood, and would be happy to share them. This includes Washingtonia filifera, washingtonia robusta, and date palms. Some of the seeds are from the oldest palms in Los Angeles, which date to the 1860s.
