Many thanks Aiwendal for the useful link.

Was not able to import nuts or seedlings form the US into Canada!

Only recently found chestnuts for sale in local supermarkets; have no
ide of their age and/or condition but have some in fridge now.

Recall that many years ago I had found some in the s.market that had
started to sprout so had 'started' those. howerver we lost them during
the prolonged illness and death of my late wife in 1997. So have been
looking since for some to sprout and replace them.

Hope to be successful here in eastern Newfoundland, Canada. However
previuos success with trees hasn't left much space!

Greetings of this time of year.
