Hi people,

During a trip to Tasmania, my son collected a heap of seeds intending to try to grow them here (in NQ?) He now realises how silly that idea was, but I am reluctant to just throw them away. Some are collected and some are purchased in proper seed packets. I would prefer to sell them as one lot, but make an offer.

Collected seed:
Unknown maple with large leaf (approx 20)
Pomegranate (heaps)
Japanese Maple (5)
Sheoak (5 pods)
Juniper (6 pods)
Blackwood(?) (heaps)
Unknown pine (10)

Purchased seed (Stamped packets say use by date as Nov 2013 or later)
Myrtle Beech (Nothofagus cunninghamii) (heaps)
King Billy Pine (Athrotaxis selaginoides) (15)
Huon Pine (Lagarostrobos franklinii) (15)
Silkwood (orites diversifolia) (15)
Blackwood (acacia melanoxylon) (min 30)

Purchased seed stamped Sow by April 2012
Manuka (leptospermum scoparium) (approx 200)

I'd be happy with $25 Matt, including postage. That is less than the price for the purchased seed.

I remember the the Tassie members talking about whether they would survive here when the topics came up a few years ago
Several people in Melb had tried them and they struggled there, and they thought that sydney would be worse still.

Be happy to be proved wrong tho

Sorry I cant take them, money is an issue tho its more than a fair price, try buying these commercially. If the gods should smile on me will be interested, otherwise can swap for my seeds, or my herb book!
