We have an abundance of seeds from these palms, we've tried for years to get them to germinate, but with no success what so ever.
Does anybody out there know what to do?

I've had a quick look on one of my favourite sites for seed germination advice and found this for you - it seems that soaking them in tepid water changed daily for 3 days is a requirement prior to putting them in sterile damp compost, or perlite/vermiculite in a sealed bag.
I love the challenge of growing from seed & wish you success

Thanks for your help, the seeds (a couple of hundred) are in the water now.
We'll just have to wait and see the results.
Thanks again
Pam
