Where can I find St. Augustine palmetto seeds?

Garden Gazette | Oct 24, 2018

St. Augustine does not make viable, collectible seed. It must be planted from sod.

A friend sent me an email about a flock of cedar waxwings that was found dead in Decatur. Tests showed that the birds died from cyanide toxicosis, from the birds eating berries from the Nandina shrub. Are Nandinas toxic? I'll forward the article.

Alan Cash | Oct 24, 2018
Garden Gazette | Oct 24, 2018

We didn't get the article you sent but found it on line. Thanks for bringing our attention to it. Evidently Nandina domestica can be toxic.
