Can anyone spare some seed of Jeffersonia dubia?

My seed is getting close to ripe, and if you send me your address, I'll make sure you get some.

Gene, my J. dubia seed seems to have disappeared while I was out of town for the NARGS Conference. When I left it was close to ready, and I figured that a few days wouldn't matter. Unfortunately, my optimism was not warranted, so I have not one seed! I did collect some J. diphylla seed, and if you want some, I'll send it to you tomorrow. Sorry!

Reading the forum this morning (June 9, 2012) prompted me to check this year's seed pods.  It was excellent timing -- only 3 slugs  Smiley and 25 seed packets with 10 seeds each (except one with 9) packed in slightly damp vermiculite.  Send me an email if you'd like some.  US and Canada only, please.

Jeffersonia diphylla seed pods look about 1 week or so away from being ready.  If I'm on the ball, I should have plenty of those to share, too.

I thought I'd best send a picture of the parent plant, snapped in April of this year.  I can send seeds to Canada and the US.
