Hi all

on this forum who have a cork oak nearby and would be prepared to send me
some acorns -- i am willing to cover any costs involved

thanks

These people don't sell the seeds but they do sell the trees. As you are
living abroad, they *might* be prepared to sell some seeds or point you in
the right direction. They a

Trees are £25 in a 7.5l pot and £12.50 for whips.

Rather interestingly - and helpfully - they do a list of what they call
"Tree Selection for the Terrified". This is to help those with "little
knowledge or experience of selecting trees" and the list is divided into
types of trees for differing situations.
