Not likely to be much FRESH seed available this year because of the freeze, but I guess some people in the california area or elsewhere might have something available. I could probably get some regular palmatum seeds, but most of the cultivars got blasted. Keep in mind of course that cultivar seeds don't come true to the parent, they will likely be green and plain.

I suggest ebay sveral venders have mixed seeds at good prices ( Rob at nishikimapleman has them nishikimapleman@comcast.net )... "specific cultivar Varieties seeds" is a crock!!! as Matt says you can't be guranteed anything and will likely have to wait years to really know what you have and you can't call it any named variety ever ethically. Prices for seeds on ebay vary from cheap to stupidly expensive IE: 5 for 4.95 and a bigger crock are "bonzai seeds" now being promoted I guess when the sprout they also have a small pot and root prunning sizzors attached ;>)...If I were you I would look for seedlings ...ebay does have good prices on those and your guranteed to at least see them alive for a month or so ;>) and pr plant they are prices coompetitive with seeds that may or may not germinate...Even with properly stratified seeds (??????) your germination might be 25-50% maybe more but I'd guess unless you have a perfect enviorment thats what you would get and of those some will die after sprouting ... anyway thats my take ..BONZAI SEEDS ...that one takes the cake!!!

OOOPS BONSAI not bonzai sorry...a senior moment David

Only one of my 12 Japanese maples made seeds this year. It is a tree that I inherited when I moved to this property, and my guess is that it is Bloodgood. I know thats not very exciting, but if you want them I will mail them to you for free. This tree has made some very interesting seedlings, that I have planted elsewhere on my property. All of them are very different looking from each other, and I can't wait to see what they grow into. Anyway, let me know if you want them.
