Seeking variations of alder for breeding alder as a grain crop.

It says nothing about the edibility of the seeds. Do you have any evidence that the seeds are edible and that there is a market for the crop? As for your actual questions, they are so specialised that I doubt whether you will get a flood of useful answers on a Gardening newsgroup. Good luck for the wedding. R. |
