Pygmy Date Palm-success & failure details

[breckjensen]

My competitive nature is now including Palm Seeds to the list of life's many adventures. I'll keep this thread to the title topic as I have other species with differing issues. a neighbor allowed me to have about 1,000 seeds still attached to his triple. Most were dark purple with the yellow umbrella connected to a small stem. The ones that were really black with soft/mushy fruit....I just threw away as they seemed a little rotten. I used my thumb nail as a blade and slid it around the equator from the removed umbrella back to the same point and the skin came off easily without any fruit issues like on other species. The seed color was light tan and after skinning.
