For our friends in Florida

People of Florida it will sone be that magical time of year when the Coontie cones ripen and drop their seeds. I PAY $ for seeds that are wild collected from a known source. Please do not collect all the seeds just 10 per area will be fine. I would prefer a picture of the mother plant along with a note on the area collected. I am part of a group that is trying to collect data on all the different morphilogical varient of the Coontie before the mix of wild and domesticated pollen changes the wild population and eventually genericizes the Coontie entirely.

Gifts from the great Tom Broome

Mr Broome sent me Coontie v cedar key seeds and so I will soon have a new, quite rare coontie to add to the collection. These are from the original Cedar Key island not the current island by that name. I will keep you posted.
