Is there a chnace to buy this palm in Europe?
You can grow it from seed if you like.
I googled about them and now i see that those brown coconutthings on the market are toddy palm nuts...
Do you want a whole one?
But also in Holland or Germany i can't find them on internet. I'm pretty sure though that some palm specialst sells them in Europe.
I read that there are in fact 3 seeds inside one nut, so maybe if those seeds are small enough to travel inside big padded envelope without rising too many questions from customs, I could buy one seed if you will have it for sale.
I asked my wife about those brown small coconuts and they are indeed toddy palm, i only know them peeled and packed.
But the ones at the market are not ripe enough she said , to grow the seeds they have to be older untill they fall from the tree. She is no expert though so if you find other iinfo then let us know.
If you want seeds from me then let me know but better have some more then one i would think. I have to buy a whole nut i guess but it has to be more ripe then the ones on the market and that will be hard to find i guess. Then she has to ask around to other Thai who grow those.
I have seen them many times laying under the marketstands but always wondered why they were so brown and small for a coconut.
But i see loads of weird stuff so i didn't pay much attention to them. They taste nice, like a natural candy, sweet and chewy.

Nobody picks their fruit there i guess but maybe those nuts float, i will see next time i pass them
