Skulking Lurker Posted November 9, 2003 Does anyone have a few viable Areca catechu nuts that they can spare or swap. I've got a number of swap items available. Please PM me. I'm also after a few T. cacao seeds. I think they are coming into season about now. [ 08. November 2003, 18:27: Message edited by: Skulking Lurker ] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skulking Lurker Posted November 19, 2003 Does anyone know where I could get a couple of viable cocos nucifera nuts. Preferably the large, more rounded variety, instead of the oblong ones. I got a couple thru customs from Christmas Island several years ago. I managed to sprout them, but the winter frost killed them off. I really want to try again.

Rev Posted November 20, 2003 Word is C nucifera wont fruit south of 28 degrees ie Geraldton or Brisbane - whichever side you are on There are some stragglers in geraldton the biggest is outside the Geraldton Hotel As ornamentals though ? maybe Have you though about A triandra? I saw one of those kept in perth but my A catechu's couldnt handle the winter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Dunkel Posted November 20, 2003 Does anyone have A. triandra seed? and how far down south will it grow? (I might keep them in over winter anyway) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torsten Posted November 21, 2003 SAB has Areca triandra and they will be in the webstore soon after Eb3 (too busy right now). Ed- you've got one coming to you from a swap we did aaaaages ago.... plus a few others things that have accumulated. I want to get all my left over trades sorted before x-mas, so that should be an avalanche of mail Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
