Excalibur nursery in west palm has small salak palms. I think you need a male and a female.

Thanks sharkman! As far as I know Bali is self-pollinating. So better stick to that.

Please do just a little research before posting.  It will help greatly.

While some are not, most Salak are dioecious,  needing male and female, as stated above.  The ones sold at Excalibur are dioecious.

From The Archives of the Rare Fruit Council of Australia::

William F. Whitman of Florida reported many years ago that the 'Bali' salak was monoecious whilst other salaks were dioecious. Since then we have had many conflicting reports, including the story that Mr. Whitman did not see the male trees growing around the perimeter of the salak orchards he visited in Indonesia. However, individual salaks have now fruited in North Queensland, thus proving Mr. Whitman correct in his observations.
