           Roystonea regia, also known as Cuban Royal Palm or simply Royal Palm, is a massive feather palm. It has a beautiful crown of pinnate leaves, and a grey hour-glass shape trunk which bulges and gives the palm a specific aspect, creating a dramatic profile.

              The trunk is stout, very smooth and grey-white in color with a characteristic bulge below a distinctive green crownshaft. The trunk of the Cuban Royal palm is swollen at the base. It constricts about half way up and then bulges again just below the crownshaft. The trunks are a smooth light gray that looks as if it had been cast from concrete. Massive and symmetrical with a smoothly sculpted trunk this palm creates a classic landscape where planted.

          Royal palms are widely planted for decorative purposes throughout their native region, and elsewhere in tropical and subtropical regions. They are  Its ability to withstand a polluted atmosphere and to grow well on either moist, well-drained soils or partially compacted fill dirt makes it valuable as a landscape plant. The roots don't damage sidewalks or curbs even when the trees are planted in constricted spaces.

  Shipping    

All live plants are Inspected By USDA Plant Inspectors before they are shipped to insure you get healthy pest free plants and seeds.

  We will ship once a week - ON or BEFORE WEDNESDAYS, because of the special stamps needed to ship plants and cuttings to you.  This can only be done at the Dept. of Agriculture.  If payments are not met before that MONDAY, your items will be shipped the following week and lose the combined discount opportunity.

   All live plants are shipped bare-root wrapped in moist sphagnum moss to ensure the plant’s healthy transit to you.

ATTENTION INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS!

We accept online payments only through PayPal, Cash payments are only acceptable for in-person payments and cash-on-delivery (COD). Cash payment can not be sent through the mail.

Please only one Paypal payment. SO THE COMBINED SHIPPING RULE WILL CAN BE USED.

COMBINED SHIPPING POLICY

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING is not included in this offer.

   This policy is good for all items bought and paid for in the week ending MONDAY.

        We will combine shipping for auctions won on the same week paid with same paypal payment.

Combined Discounts Won Auctions

For 2-3 winning auctions, the combined discount is 10% of the total Shipping and Handling charges. For 4-7 winning auctions, the combined discount is 20% of the total Shipping and Handling charges. For 7+ winning auctions, the combined discount is 30% of the total Shipping and Handling charges.

         The additional charge for any phytosanitary certificate is not included in this offer.

         As each order is packed and prepared separately you will pay the quoted S/H charges individually per item. If you buy the same species in that item it does calculate out the discount (i.e.: additional item $3.61). My stores' combined shipping is built in for same items rather than a varied selection. Includes postage, USDA certification and inspection, proper packing and delivery to Airport for prompt delivery. I can’t really change any of these. If you want one of this and one of that, it gets hard to discount much as each different species requires it's own prep & packing, then at USDA each has to be unwrapped and inspected then repacked. USDA requires me to clean and prepare every last piece before we drive them to the Inspection Station on the other side of the island. It takes my wife and I, a day to pack items and get ready to ship. The whole next day we drive around the island and get inspected (2-3 hours), then drive to the Airport Post Office to drop off. It takes the same work with the same type item if you can understand.

We ship via USPS Mondays-Wednesday with Delivery confirmation.

Payment must be received within 7 days of the auction ending.

Non-paying bidders may receive negative feedback and will be reported as an unpaid item to eBay.

my dog Taz will fetch your email to me

Rare Palm Seeds

Fresh Highest Quality

         Seller warrants seed to be of the variety and quantity advertised. Safe delivery is guaranteed and seeds lost or damaged during shipment will be replaced at seller's expense. Claims must be made within 7 days of shipment. All other replacements, refunds, returns and exchanges will be made at the sole discretion of the seller.

  Seed is a live product which depends on many important related grower skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, irrigation, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease free soil, and reasonable weather conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as temperature, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media. These factors are totally out of the seller's control and are the buyer's responsibility and risk. Consequentially, the seller cannot unconditionally guarantee seed to perform properly regardless of conditions or the buyer's methods or mistakes.
