Don't give up on the seeds that appear not to germinate soon. I had a few germinate as late as 6 months. Ankrara's Hobby Corner...See Morebismark palm problem
Comments (1)Sounds like cold damage and or wet and cold/cool weather that caused a fungus to grow in the bud. I would mix up some copper and pour into to bud or you can try peroxide in the bud. Cold damage can show up several months after it occurs.Pull slightly on the center spear a see if it comes out.I had one do this and it recovered very quickly....See MoreShould I or Can I move a Bismark Palm
Comments (1)Some people here in Rockport planted two of them a few years ago and they have not died, but they aren't growing either. We did some research on them and found out that the coast is a terrible place to try to grow them. They don't like the high winds and high humidity, although they love the sun. They do need lots and lots of sun, and they hate shade. They do not transplant very well. If I were you, I would go ahead and transplant it to an area (be sure to protect the roots) that gets sun all day long and make sure that it is in an area that has well drained soil....See More3 year old Blue Bismark Palm in Phoenix
