FREE: Eastern Redbud Seeds - 40

According to what I found online, these will grow in hardiness zones 5-9, sometimes even zone 4. The discussion of growing/cultivating trees from seeds in the link you mentioned really has me curious. My wife and I just bought a house in Missouri and it's killing me to wait til Spring to start planting trees to eventually attract squirrel and deer, so the idea of getting seeds I can mess with indoors is pretty attractive.

I've tried before with acorns and had zero sprouts from about 20 acorns, so I must've done something wrong. Now that I have a house and want to try again so I can plant some oaks, we've had a very, very dry summer and acorns are actually a little hard to find. I'm determined to have some seedlings ready by Spring, though, and It would be neat to be able to say, a few years down the road, that I started all of these trees from seeds. I plan on trying with a couple different apple varieties, cherry, and, if bidding goes right, the redbuds.

I'm fanned, watching and bidding. Thanks for the listing and the helpful link. If I get the 22 out of 40 that one of the writers mentioned on the link, I'll have WAY more redbuds than I have room for. Wonder how they'd do as a row tree on my back property line . . .
