    hello. i hope this question is posted to the appropriate forum...

    out of a batch of queen palm seeds sprouted, a total of 104 germinated. 100 of these were single trunk queen palms, but 2 seperate seeds actually sprouted twin palms each... 4 palms from 2 seeds.

    so with the total sprouted, is this about the average (2%ish) of queen seeds that germinate that produce natural twin palms? any other info on this topic? do these guys tend to grow normal otherwise?

    never noticed this before when sprouting palms, so any info is appreciated.

    thanks.
