I can not see the images. All I get is a red x. I logged on and all else is OK. What gives?

Ok, that's now fixed with unblocking of the privacy option involving 'refers' fields. Don't ask.

Yes, they are seeds!!!

Actually, those are not seeds... yet. That is a female palm in flower. You need a male around to pollinate those or you will never get seeds

So, Chuck, what's the verdict? were those seeds? Sure looked like seeds to me. I have about four dozen that I have started from seed here in chilly Tampa, Fl.
