Nurseries around here don't carry them for some reason.

I could send some acorns to you if I see any in the next couple of

weeks,
as long as postage isn't too much and the squirrels haven't got them
first! It's probably a bit late for acorns now, though. Also, some

oaks
have caught a new disease, which has come from the US, where it affected
(possibly killed) other varieties of oak. I don't know whether the
disease is deadly.

The trees in England are really confused. The temperature in London

today
is about what you'd expect for late August or early September and many
plants have already put out buds or are flowering. I blame global
warming!
