Not familiar with this. Can you explain in more detail please. Congeries here means a collection, an aggregation. did you mean collecting tree seeds?

Looks like the Fred Dibnah method with those ladders!

Have done a bit of this. Not really practised in the uk much. Seeds are taken from the heathiest straight well shaped trees and stored/germinated to continue good genetic viability within species. Climbings real hard going as no marks or scars should be left on specimens and often Forest trees are as you know tall and lacking in lower branches.

Looks like interesting work, wouldn't mind a few weeks a year doing that. Gets a bit depressing removing trees all the time, and putting SFA back.
