100 fresh seeds, Museum's Trachycarpus

Trachycarpus 'Plovdiv', Polar palms of Bulgaria, 100 fresh seeds packet

The seeds are collected from genuine palms of  Trachycarpus 'Plovdiv', which grow in Asenovgrad, near Plovdiv. They were never protected in winter in any way. The owner - Kiril Donov planted these palms back in 1989 from seeds collected from the famous palm trees that grow in the garden of the old historic museum in Plovdiv since 1973 and have experienced many freezing winters.

These palms have practically the same cold tolerance as the  palms, that we call Trachycarpus 'Bulgaria'. In fact, they are one of their parents. But we think that the hybrid palms Trachycarpus 'Bulgaria' look a little better, that is why we prefer to propagate them at our nursery.

If you would like seeds of genuine Trachycarpus 'Plovdiv', now you can easily get them. Just order from here!

Please note, that these seeds are only available from Christmas until the end of March each year! The usual germination is between 80-95 %.
