Source of hard seeds
Hi folks, I teach an introductory plant science course to college
freshmen, and one of the labs that they do is various forms of scarification of hard seeds (hot water, acid, physical abrasion, etc.). We've always used Albizia julibrissin, with excellent success. But this year, the seed weevils have destroyed nearly all the Albizia seeds on the local trees -- good, perhaps, from the standpoint of slowing it as an invasive weed, but also harmful to my lab. So I'm in search of another source -- a different species would be fine -- of seeds that I could purchase. Are any of you aware of a USA commercial source of some fairly large-seeded hard seed species in lots of around a pound or two? Thanks. Malcolm Manners Florida Southern College |
