Brahea armata is a palm in the Arecaceae family. Its native range is from Mexico to Baja, California, and Sonora. Some familiar names include Blue Hesper Palm, Gray Goddess, and Mexican Blue Fan Palm. It can be seen growing in washed-out areas near canyon bottoms and rock crevices in higher elevations. It likes to grow with other palms such as Washingtonia filifera and Washingtonia robusta. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. It is widely used as an ornamental. It can grow to 50 feet tall with a robust trunk. The bluish-green leaves reach out 3-7 feet and are 3 feet wide. It forms a shag around the trunk like many palms and are cut off to keep a clean appearance. The fragrant inflorescence reaches 15 feet long, falling toward the ground in February and March. The fruits start green and turn yellow-brown when ripe. The fruits are about an inch in diameter. It prefers to grow in full sun to part shade with little water needs. Zones 9-11

There a lot of different techniques used for each seed and there is no one way. We will include basic instruction with your packet of seeds that you order but outside of that the more you research and learn on your own the better experience you will have. We have hundreds of seeds and its almost impossible to know everything about each one :)

Overall a good product. The seeds look good enough, if not quite fresh. I received the product fairly promptly, which was nice. I'm not sure why there is a rating for customer service since this was not necessary.
