Palm Seeds 



We make it a point to deliver nothing but absolutely fresh seeds of 

 the different varieties of Palm Seeds, shipments of which we are 

 constantly receiving from various parts of the tropics. As the various 

 varieties ripen at different seasons of the year, we have indicated 

 below, as nearly as possible, when each sort will arrive, and as these 

 seeds loose their germination very quickly, we earnestly solicit orders 

 in advance. Pgr too
