Re: Collecting cones
You read my mind with this subject. I plan on chasing up good species of pine this Autumn. Also working out what pines we have in the main street they are a nice looking pine. We are also talking about collecting seeds at the Clubs botanic garden 
It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.
