Big fruiting year up here north of the frozen tundra. Basswood, Maples, Spruces and Balsam all gave it up to Mom Nature. In ten years have not sen such a bounty, in a drought year too ( about 1/2 normal rainfall ). Anyway, the Hop-hornbeam ( ironwood ) Ostraya virginiana went along with the big boys and girls and I have seeds aplenty. Don't need anything in return: just an address where to send. D-mail. Ken

How sweet of you to offer.

Everyone in the midwest should take him up on this offer. That is a great understory tree.

I'd like to have some but I'm not sure how they would do in our heat, being they are from Wisconsin.

Ken, I'd certainly have to agree with "big fruiting" this year - outstanding this year when we were in Michigan! You have mail :)
