i recently bought 12 windmill palm seeds and have tried to sew them for a month with nothing sprouting yet. i pre soaked the seeds, they sunk, i peeled a thin layer of skin off, and the rest of the seed is verry hard. is this a shell that needs to be peeled and thats why they haven't sprouted???
Palms can be very slow to germinate, up to a year in some cases. http://www.floridata.com/ref/t/t_fortun.cfm Per this site give them at least 8 to 12 weeks.
