Not Deshojo but you can get a very good selection of reliable stratified

A good variety of exotic plant seeds can also be obtained from: Chiltern

I've bought from them both for many years with very good results. I
think you would be too late for this season though.

Can anyone here recommend where I can purchase Acer deshojo
stratified seeds


Remember, 'Deshojo' is a cultivar of Acer palmatum. If you try to grow
it from
seed, you will not get 'Deshojo.' Maple cultivars such as this can only
be
reproduced vegetatively. Seedlings will vary widely.

I have bought seeds two years ago at fall from www.acerpalmatum.com and
though I stratified them correctly none of them germinated. Now I wander
into public parks and look for mature A. palmatum. Though of course you
won't have exactly the same characteristics than the parent tree, I have
found that the probability of getting a color close to the parent is not
that bad.

Please, folks, limit sig lines and sig art to FOUR lines. This
all takes up useless space in the archives (and doesn't look
like anything anyway if you use a proportional font!).

Thanks.

I completely agree. I often get much better results from seed collected
from my own trees and stratified immediately. To buy viable seed of
specific parentage though you must get them from a reputable dealer that
only supplies fresh seed that has been stored correctly. I have found
both of the ones mentioned to be excellent in this respect.

Cheers
