Dypsis pilulifera , At least I think this is the accepted name :?:

Some more info here: http://www.pacsoa.org.au/palms/Dypsis/pilulifera.html

Seeds are rather small, ( sorry about the photo quality )

Took about 3 months till first germination.

I have some that popped in November 2007 and they are very small, maybe a 1/4" tall. They are apparently very slow growing. we'll see.
Kent in Kansas
where it's cold in winter (always)
and hot in summer (usually)
