Help with Ecology Project?

Hi everyone,

I'm a graduate student in Horticulture/Ecology at Iowa State University. I'm trying to collect seeds of many tree and shrubs species native to eastern North America. I am wondering if anyone living in KENTUCKY, TENNESSEE, SOUTHERN ILLINOIS, or NORTHERN ALABAMA knows of wild populations (or yard plants collected originally from wild seeds in these areas) of the following plants from which I could obtain seeds for a native plant research project. I welcome any information or seeds! (*** = plants I am particularly desperate to obtain for my project):

***Euonymus atropurpureus -- Eastern Wahoo

***Lonicera dioica or L. sempervirens -- Honeysuckle vine

***Corylus cornuta -- Beaked Hazelnut

Quercus rubra -- White Oak

Quercus alba -- Red Oak

Symphoricarpos alba -- White Snowberry

Fraxinus quadrangulata -- Blue Ash

Fraxinus pennsylvanica or F. americana -- Green or White Ash

Cephalanthus occidentalis -- Buttonbush

Ceanothus americanus -- New Jersey Tea

Thanks,

Bryan
