Thank you so much! I just had a couple questions. I have a christmas palm and it has the red seeds/fruits (not sure which they are). Do I wait until they fall off and the red fruit rots off naturally? Or do I take a knife and remove the red fruit husk and then soak them? Can I take some that have fallen off or should I pick it straight from the palm bunch? Little confused on how I deal with the red shell.
Let them fall off naturally. That will be in a few weeks from turning red. Thank you for watching
Thank for you sharing your information. Does this method works for Bismark palm seeds?
I should work on any Palm Tree, even coconuts. Thank you for watching
The only thing I would say is maybe deeper pots because when they first root, before they even break the surface, they have a long tap route and it can’t get very long in those pots
No need, they get transferred to bigger containers soon after
good job bro👍👀
Thanks for the visit
Thank you.😀👍
You are welcome. Thank you for watching.
@@growNglow very good demonstration, I shall try to germinate mine that i brought from Mombasa to Nairobi that much cooler, Joseph Muongeri
It looks like Christmas palm
@@josephmuongeri6670 Thank you. Good luck with your seeds
@@josephmuongeri6670 Christmas Palm is a common name for the Manila Palm because of the red berries
Very interesting video that you made here.
I have one question;
Would this method work in a country like Malta?
Thanks
Adam.
There are some species of palm that grow in Malta, mostly date palms. I believe Gummar (dwarf palm) is a native species of the Maltese Islands
Great video! Question… I just purchased 6 Christmas palm seedlings I planted them and have them outside in full sun. The leaves seem to be drying out 😢 even though I keep the soil moist. Where is the best place to keep these babies? Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Hello! If the leaves are damaged in the sun, gradually accustom the palms to the sun. The seedlings may not have been in direct contact with the sun before. They should also be provided with adequate air humidity.
It is better to put in partial shade in the beginning, as they would grow naturally under the mother trees. I am pretty sure they will come back for you
I loved the video.... I'm excited, but wonder.... how to make a triple trunked plant? I assume all I need to do is plant 3 seeds next to each other. Is this as easy as I assume?
We do usually grow them in threes because they look nice that way. There are varieties of palms that have multiple trunks from the one plant, but not this variety. However, I have seen seen three grown almost into one and other. Thank you for watching, and good look with the seeds
Also, the sees started as small oblong pea size, the n came flowers and bees, now they look like acorns.. just wondering if those will germinate? Thx
Wait until they ripen. They will be small and green at first.
Where are you located its beautiful
Thank you. The Philippines
I have queen palm tree seeds that I’m trying to germinate but curious to know will they last in the Irish weather? Should I just keep them inside all year round
I am pretty sure they will germinate, but I do not think they will survive outside in wintertime. Thank you for watching
I have a question for you, the seeds in your video have a hard shell, do you break the shell before you put them in the water? or do you leave the seeds as they are?
No. The hard outside is part of the seed. It contains the nutrients that enable the seedling to grow. Just the same as a coconut. Thank you for watching
@@growNglow oh perfect thanks for your help i will leave them as they are and soak them in water for a few days and then plant them
Great. I wish you 100% success
Do the have to be red? I have seeds that are green about acorn size...will those work or do they have to be red first?
Not all varieties go red, but if they are still on the tree, leave them there and see.
Sir I have king palm seed can I put them in warm water to soften them ??
Sure. I do that with most hard seeds. Thank you for watching
Hello pascal thanks for the video.. Where are you.. When I heard the accent.. I taught jeses this is not Ireland 😂but the accent is 🍀, Dublin myself.. Love the palms but you did not say what the palm is? Regards. David. Dublin Ireland...
Thank you David. I used to live in North Kildare, but we moved to The Philippine in 2010. The palm variety is up there in the video description. My other channel is called "Irish Chippy' as most videos are woodworking, but there are some gardening also. Thank you again for watching.
Adonidia m. is commonly known here in the states as "Christmas Tree Palm." The reason for this is the trees normally bloom late in the fall, and they produce a red berry from the white flower in December / January; hence, Christmas Tree Palm.
@@nhojcam Yes John, except over here they fruit at different time (Mine were April). We have no winter ... Pascal
🙏🏼❤🙏🏼
Thank you
Did u peel them before put them on boiling water? Or do you use hot water to made pealing easy?
The skin just almost fell off. I did not it in boiling water, just hot water. Thank you for watching
Will this be same for growing Windmill Palm and what zone are you in?Im in Beautiful British Columbia Canada zone 8.
It will probably work for all palms. Maybe best wait until it gets a bit milder
Hey there. My neighbor gave me some Christmas Palm seeds. Some of them are about 1 inch long and others are about 2 inches long. Do you know what the difference is?
I would guess that the small ones are Christmas Palms and the others some other variety
@@growNglow I believe you are correct. I think they may be from an Alexander Palm
@@CoastalBronco Best grow and see. You will have fruit in 4 to 5 years or less
What planting medium did you use?
Just home made compost. They are not fussy. Will even grow in sand. Thank you for watching.
How often do you water the seeds while they are growing? And how much water? Please
I just make sure the don't dry out. I have them in big pots now, as they are growing fast.
I keep may palm seed maybe half year already. Is it still ok to plant?
The should be fine. The oldest palm seeds to germinate were Date Palm, and they were 2,000 years old. Thank you for watching and good luck with the seeds
How long does it take for them to form trunks
I am not sure what you would call a trunk. After planting in the ground, they will spend 2 years establishing a root system. After that they will grow rapidly. Thank you for watching.
Wooo 45 day just that
Yes. The climate here is very well suited to growing palms. Thank you for watching
@@growNglow what? 45 days for suited climate.
I live in the Philippines I'm trying to grow one too using the seeds day 3 tho.
Should i water everyday?
I want to eat mine it's same as yours. I have tons growing on the ground. All I have to do is pot them. They grow themselves.
Yeah true. I potted several that grew accidently under the tree as well.
Can you please say the type of soil these palms are grown in?
I just grew them in normal home made compost. Thank you for watching
Well I have a palm trees outside in my front door
Great. I am going to sow 20 of these on the roadside
When seeds grow on palm trees, seeds are on palm trees all year round?
No, I think only certain part of the year.
Generally once a year. There are lovely red berries on them now.
My seeds had started propagation
That is great. Well done
Couple of them seeds weren’t exactly viable huh bud! Haha great video
You got that right! Thank you for watching
What is the variety of your palm tree?
I think I mentioned it in the video. They are Manila Palm (adonidia merrillii)
what are the use
Beauty & shade
What part of the world are you in?
Southern Leyte, The Philippines.
Palm tree from plant up to havest palm tree how many years?
This is decorative
What is the name of this palm tree?
As I said in the video it is the Manila Palm or sometimes referred to as the Christmas Palm. The scientific name is Adonidia merrillii, and is native to the Philippines. Thank you for watching
❤ thank you. Awesome vid
You are so welcome Joy. Thank you for watching
Can we sell this palms seed
It would be better to sell the seedlings
@@growNglow how do I get costumer
I planted a seed and it sprouted 45 days later.
I am so glad. Thank you for watching.
I did not soak
Still should grow a few days slower. Thank you for watching.
@@growNglow yes true. And one thing more I want to know the name of this palm .
@@cookingwithshaistanaz8082 Sure. I thought I mentioned at the start. It is called the Manila Palm (Adonidia merrillii). In the US they call it Christmas Palm, because it tends to have those beautiful red berries around Christmas time. Over here we have no winter
@@growNglow OK thank you. In which part do you live in us. In near future we are also planning to move there but still not sure where to go. We searched few places but still confused.
@@cookingwithshaistanaz8082 I live in southern Leyte, The Philippines, not The US.
Can you gift me some seeds? 🙉
If you live near me, sure.
@@growNglow I live in South Africa. Can shipping be arranged?
