I just potted up about 7 seeds of Butia capata. The seeds had been in the vermiculite for 1 year (!!!!) before they germinated. The impressive thing (IMHO) was that although I'll usually have at least one Butia twin (two plants growing from the same seed) this round, of the 7 seeds that germinated, 5 were twins and 1 was a triplet! Has anyone else ever seen a triplet palm seed? What will happen to the three palms? Are they doomed?
Just thought I'd share!
Cheers,
Paul
