    just got back from a trip to Brede wood near Seddlescombe, found a few interesting items. one day i plan to sit down and learn about some of these but until then i'm posting pictures galore The most interesting find was rather close to the nearby resivoir, i climbed down into a gully to look at a different tree and this caught my eye, an interesting physical reaction by the tree to the decay possibly caused by this fruiting body. On a seperate note whilst crossing the basin of this untrodden gully, i found my self thigh high in muddy leaf litter, rather unsettling, but entertaining nonetheless as i appeared to have been half consumed by the earth in so much as three steps. The missus laughed at least, i nearly pissed myself.

    Thanks for your replies I'm going to dry them and try a few different experememts. Got to love old gardening books that outline every detail as if some kind of ritual. One of the experements ill be trying involves wearing g a fresh goat skin and dancing around the planted seeds with my elbows on fire on a Wednesday eating g some hair of a cat.....

    I once collected seed from a nice Psuedotsuga mensesii at bedgbury pinetum. Like allot of pines stratification was required in order to get them to germinate. I did this by planing them then putting in the fridge for a few weeks. I have these Collected from a garden escapee of Prunus cerasifera 'nigra' (I'm making cherry plum crumble tonight). My question is what sort of treatment does the seed require to get them to germinate? Many sites are saying stratify, some say no need, just plant. To my mind looking at the hard seed shell some combination of scarification tjthen stratification may be necesarry. Your fruit thoughts are welcome. Thanks

    My thoughts exactly until I read this. "The leaves of the roble beech are unusual for a number of reasons. Each leaf has 7-11 pairs of veins that are sufficiently raised to give it a wavy appearance. In addition, these veins reach the edge of the leaf between the teeth of the serrations and not, as is usual, at the tip of them. Finally, the way the leaves are arranged on the shoots in an alternate, overlapping fashion, gives the tree a distinctive herringbone look, a featured shared by only one other southern beech, the Atlantic beech (Nothofagus antarctica)."

    Could be spot on there, although I think with the recent heat and the location of this tree my specimine is suffering from a range of issues including scorching of leaves via reflected heady from tarmac.
