Lately I've managed to receive a fair amount of T. fortunei seeds that I'll be germinating. Before I germinate them, I wanted to offer some seeds up for free, so that everyone has a chance to grow them. I can't give everyone too many of each seed, but I can give you some, and send it for free. Here's what I have:

T. fortunei from Tennessee
T. fortunei "Hayes Stiffie"
T. fortunei "Tesan"

Please PM me if you're interested, but also respond to the thread to let me know, because sometimes I don't receive all of the PMs 🙄

Cameron.

I received the Tesan (and will receive the Princeps) from Garry @ coldplant.com, he's a member here. He has been excellent to deal with!

Ive been reading up on the tesan. Interesting to see comparitive pics of a "normal" fortunei compared to the tesan form. Ive found that its said to be more then hardy in a zone 7 area. I like the look of the leaves on them too..

is it true the Hayes is just a waggie fortunei cross??

Yeah I like the "stout" look that Tesan have too! I've heard that Hayes Stiffie is a fort x wag cross, but no one really knows for sure. The seeds that I'll send you come from the original tree.
