| If anyone has lots of room to grow a bunch of trees and is interested in some somewhat unusual tree seeds, give me a shout. I have a bunch left over from planting this year. |

| No one else in Tennessee likes to grow rare trees? |

I just bought another lot and am counting the number of spaces I have left for trees. :) I'm interested in trying some.

| Hello, I like growing trees and shrubs from seeds. I especially like ones native to China. I'm starting 3 species of camellia this year but thats about it. Have you ever come across any Liriodendron chinense seeds or plants? |
RE: Have: Unusual Tree (and a few perennial) Seeds

| Many of the seeds have found a home, some still haven't. Here's what's left (I'm pretty sure): Decaisnea fargesii (Dead Man's Fingers Tree) 13
Ginkgo biloba (Ginkgo) 12 x 2
Gymnocladus chinensis (Chinese Coffee Tree) 12
Hovenia dulcis (Japanese Raisin Tree) 24+
Idesia polycarpa (Iigiri Tree) 7
Maackia chinensis (Chinese Maackia) 14
Pistacia chinensis (Chinese Pistache) 24+ Belamcanda chinensis / Iris domestica (Blackberry Lily) 24 x ?
Orthosiphon aristatus? (Cat's Whiskers) 24 x ?
Passiflora incarnata (Purple Passionflower) 24 x 2
Ricinus communis (Castor Bean Plant) 12 If anyone could use all the rest of these, please let me know.
______________________________________ mww181, Sorry, but I don't have Liriodendron chinense. I did notice that the seeds were available through Shiffield's and Schumaker, and that plants were available through ForestFarm and Fairweather Gardens (although Fairweather's are quite pricey). |

| Are the Orthosiphon aristatus hardy here? Are they the white or the purple? |
RE: Have: Unusual Tree (and a few perennial) Seeds
| | |
| Nope, they would have to be grown as annuals. I actually got those particular seeds from a friend and have not seem them growing. That's why I have the "?" after the genus. |

| I am interested in these: Hovenia dulcis (Japanese Raisin Tree) 24+
Idesia polycarpa (Iigiri Tree) 7 I don't have anything to trade you, are you giving them away? SASE? Thanks, Steve |
RE: Have: Unusual Tree (and a few perennial) Seeds
| | |
| Yes Steve, I am giving them away for the cost of postage. Email me if you are interested. You have your email blocked on here, so I can't email you. |

| Brandon I would so be interested in the Ginkgo biloba tree seeds. I only am asking for a few seeds. When you have 12 x 2 is that 12 seeds 2 times or is that 12 times at 2 seeds?? If it is 2 seeds I would be happy with that!! |
RE: Have: Unusual Tree (and a few perennial) Seeds
| | |
| Well, I'd like to give them a try. Send me your address and I'll get a SASE on its way! |

| brandon: I would love a few of the Ginkgo seeds if you have any left. Please let me know & thanks! =) - Steve |

| Hey Brandon I'd like to try a couple of the tree varieties you have. I've tried the Decaisnea fargesii twice before with both a plant and seeds. It will grow good and then just collapse for no reason. I'd like to try it again though. I'm going to try to provide a lot better drainage and plant it in half shade. I would also like to try the Gymnocladus chinensis seeds. Let me know what you need in return. |
