The message
from Sacha contains these words:

Thanks, Bob. I read about it, too and the history is certainly interesting.
Unfortunately, the would-be customer doesn't want the seeds, he wants an
actual tree and going by his name and the enquiry combined, I think it
probable he's a Buddhist himself. I think he has probably exhausted all the
UK possibilities and will have to look abroad.


If it's not a matter of jam yesterday, perhaps he would contemplate an
offer to cultivate one from seed for him?


He was adamant "not from seed". It would take us a long time to grow it on
for him and he might not want to wait that long. And of course it might not
'do'....
