Where to find Cardamom Seeds?

(1/3) > >>

toadshade:
Just wanted to see if anyone has a place I could try to get viable Green or Black Cardamom seeds.  So far most of the links here are 3-5 years old and most will not ship to the US anyway.  Any place I have seen on line seems to get really bad reviews.  I have not had any luck germinating seeds that I get in the store which makes me think they are old, sterilized or heated. 

blackb0x:
I've had good luck with Trade Winds Fruit. Never tried their cardamom seeds, but it looks like they have a couple black varieties in stock.

toadshade:
I'll give them a shot thanks.

turtle_hermit:
Cardamom plants are in the Zingiberaceae family and can be more easily propagated through rhizomes.
Any reason you are trying from seed?

WizardsTree:
They're trying from seed because real cardamom rhizomes are nearly impossible to find in the US. I'm working on getting the real plants -- I'll have some baby ones for sale in about 5 weeks, and in about 6 months I'll have more mature plants. (Importing those from Kerala, India)
