Hi guys

I am after some Japanese black pine seedlings, cuttings or whatever can be used. I was considering growing from seed, but if I can get some
seedlings I can speed up the process by 2-3 years. I want to try one of the methods that was described in the forum for growing black pine from seed/seedling,
have a look its a great post!

If you has any seedlings or know anyone who does, could you contact me? Im happy to pay for postage and seedlings if needed.

Cheers

Yeah I noticed that its really hard to get that :)

I just checked the quarantine laws, and JBP seed cannot be imported from the US which I wanted to do.

Does anyone know where could I get the seeds from?Anyone willing to sell them? Please PM me.

Cheers

yeah, but i have been lucky to collect this time before - its worth a shot
unless the viability of the seeds are decreased collecting at this time of year?

They should definitely be viable, I dont see why now. And besides they went through the whole winter outside, so I dont think
I would even have to put them in the fridge for a month, they should sprout easy since spring is here.

I would really appreciate it if you could get the seeds since it seems like its impossible to get any :)
