Butia paraguayensis "Dwarf Yatay Palm" Seeds
Butia paraguayensis, also known as Yatay Palm, is a fascinating and uncommon dwarf palm that grows in open savannas, known as 'cerrado', in southern Brazil, northern Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay.
It rarely reaches more than 2 meters (7 feet) in height and features a short, slim trunk and strongly arching blue-green leaves, with leaflets arranged in a V-shape. This dwarf Butia is especially valuable as an ornamental palm in temperate and subtropical gardens where it can withstand summer heat and extreme cold during winter.

The Holy Grail.
I've been searching for Duguetia marcgraviana for FAR too long, and supplies are extremely limited. Taste is similar to my favorite fruit, Duguetia stenantha; but with more of a cantaloupe flavor and unique sugar apple qualities.
