Dear Marc,
While I so very sorry to hear about your losses, I'm certainly you're
counting blessings that your home and shed still stand, and there was no
human life lost. No doubt the great folks here on the list will send seeds
your way as soon as you are ready.
I live in south Florida, home of a variety of palms and cycads. Not certain
what I can send your way, as I'm not a fan of these plants, but if you can
tell me what to look for, I'd be glad to help try to replenish your palm
collection.
Best to you and yours. Though the loss is difficult, you have each other.
