Nesci is too large to fit in the post, maybe if Leong used a courier instead?
Cheers Mojo

A member actually sent me some this year from up that way but I was only looking at the seed germination today and it seems it needs 90 days cold after soaking
Might try it anyway I might get a couple to come up

Then the rest should come up next year!

Usually being fresh is a big bonus. I was hoping for something like that because I got them too late to cold stratify anyway.
I will plant them out and see how they go.
Edit: what time of year was this?
Thanks
