Tokopatta palm ( Livistona jinkensiana) is a valuable non timber multiple end uses forest species of Arun- achal Pradesh. In order to establish improved plantation, the production of quality seedling of this species is essen- tial. The present study was undertaken to determine tree age effects on seed characters, seed germination and per- formance of seedlings. The 500 seeds sample from each plantations aged 18, 25, 35, 45, 54, 63 and 74 years old around Pasighat town under East Siang district, Arunachal Pradesh, India were taken to see the effect of tree age on seed morphological characters, seed germination and seedling performance. Significant variation was observed for seed diameter and seed weight between plantations of different ages. The age effect was also seen in the germi- nation patterns with middle aged plantations producing most superior seeds in terms of seed morphological parame- ters and germination behavior. Seedling attributes after 12 months showed that seedling obtained from young and middle aged plantations (between 18 to 45 years) performed better than those beyond 50 years.
