I have a question for Erik or any other palm person. I have a Brazilian Sand Palm (Allagoptera arenaria) and I would like to grow out some of the seeds. I tried with one batch and nothing sprouted. There is another group of seeds on the tree that look fertile but I don't know. Should I remove them now and try again? Should I wait and watch for them to fall of or put them in a loose bag? Once I have the seeds, how difficult is it to get them to sprout?

Here's the palm
