We have a limited batch of only (2) species this time around. Due to the death of the person who was helping with the collection of these seeds, our operations were drastically hindered in 2024. 

We hope to have some more seeds in the coming months if all goes well.

Thanks for your support.

 

AVAILABLE via our website & Palm Talk forum as well.

Endemic species of Cuba which only grows in the province of Camagüey. Resistant to drought, fire, & poor soils. Our grandmother is from Camagüey.

Copernicia rigida 'SILVER', jata palm (Arecaceae)

LIMITED QTY. AVAILABLE

From the surrounding area of Moa in the Oriente / Holguin Province in Cuba, where our father is from. "This area is affected by fires every several years, but it does not affect these plants that are adapted and very resistant." The species / epithet means "rigid" named for the rigid leaf segments.  

These sales do not benefit the tyrannical communist regime.
