Looks a lot easier to find things than the old site!
I took a look through the maple seeds, there are some errors, and saying
you can grow A. palmatum 'Osakazuki' from seed is either ignorant or
disingenuous.
A couple of other packets that looked interesting, above all A. pictum
although it is mislabled A. mono against current taxonomy. (Pictum is
listed as a syn. I prefer mono too, but judgment has been rendered...)
No provenance or variety given, mind, so the seeds might look like
almost anything.
I've only had a very few things from them, and on that small sample,
they're prone to errors. I do get all GOM about chatty catalogues, and
am inclined to distrust them; but I know plenty of people like that
approach. Chiltern do have an extremely impressive range, though.
