Default Did anyone find out the price of the seed?

If we can put a man on the moon we can create more of the same palm tree...

Default I just saw some seed site that sells the seed.

he wants $350, for just one seed..hahhahah..yeah right.. and that doesnt even include shipping charges over seas and then customs charges...

maybe i might fly out there and bring one back for the same price...

Default Which seed are you talking about?

The 2000 year old seed that was found, they only want 350 dollars? That doesnt sound right, maybe to sponsor the seed or something. Or maybe the type of seed is worth 350 dollars.

You probably meant the type of palm seed is worth $350. What type of Palm is it?
