Any chance you have some type of a hybrid?
It's not a Butia, it's Jubaea chilensis. They have massive trunks and are extremely beautiful (the most beautiful specimens are over 75 years old!).

Yeah, but they get quite robust. It will take at least 4x4 foot square.
What do you intend to do with all those freshly harvested seeds? More to that... what do you do with those countless seeds of various varieties that sprout? Do you plant them at a public place, give away or terminate?

You will love them even more, when you see, that they can even grow in Alpine Switzerland.
Difficult to germinate though.

I'd love to try to germinate some seeds of the wine palm,but it is such a slow grower,I probably wouldn't live long enough to get one planted in the ground!!!LOL

How deep is your germinating tray,and what to you normally plant in it?
I've been using those wall paper drip trays that are 6inches x 6inches x 30 inches,and they have been working great and it can get them on the smallest tray shelf.
