I have never seen Fortuniana set seed anywhere I have encountered or grown it. Fortuniana is considered to be a cross between R. Banksiae and R. Laevigata, therefore a hybrid which would not germinate true to the type from seed. So, no, IF you could find Fortuniana seed, you would not be able to raise the exact rose you are looking for from its seed. And, I know of no source for Fortuniana seed as it has never set seed in my experience. Where are you located? You may be able to obtain cuttings, depending upon where you live.

Okay...no clue what kind of seeds you are after, but you can also get organic grains on Amazon. I bought 25# of hard red wheat for sprouting, grinding, etc. for less than $1 a #. Also, I recommend Two Willies Nursery (Rollmisty) on eBay for fresh seed and cheap shipping. Hope this helps.

We do thousands of custom grafts a year - I'd be happy to graft the tree for you if you'd pay for shipping and rootstock. We buy the rootstock in massive shipments so its usually about $1 to $1.50 each. This year we are ordering in M111 but we do have a small amount of M7 avaiable. The M111 will produce a tree about 15 to 18 foot tall while the M7 would be more like 12 to 15 foot tall. The benchgrafts would be shipped for about $10 - so if you wanted 4 trees $16 should do it worst case. We would need several cuttings from last years growth - preferably about pencil size. My orchard phone is 9138936050 - wagonwheelorchard - Thanks, Rick

HB seeds come up pretty quickly. So do the clitoria/pea fine seeds. I started them in pots months ago. If you're getting some of this rain, set them out in the storm... the past few days I've had seeds pop up that have been doing nothing until they got rained on. I think one secret is to keep the soil moist for those hard coated seeds. Good luck ! patty

Nancy, there's nothing wrong from growing from seed for fun. I wanted to do that myself. Unfortunately I can't for several different reason but if you can and like to do it, go for it. For me, the few trees I have is already too much work lol. What keeps me motivated is having fruit, flowers, and an exotic plant/tree that people are surprised to see when they come over. I have some family back in Portugal so I sent a bunch of Ponderosa seeds there last year since I know they can be grown in ground with minimal maintenance... and who knows, when I go back in 3, 5, or 10 years I'll see a new variety of "ponderosa" growing.... or a fully grown mature Ponderosa. Anyways, best of luck to your seedling and grafted trees Nancy. Don't think I was trying to bash your hobby.

I can send you cuttings for postage, but it’s very hot here right now.

Thank you, Theresa, but if that offer to send postage was for me, i no longer grow Fortuniana. Where I live, it isn't hot enough to force it to root and when I was able to obtain rooted stocks, it wasn't hot enough to force them to push the scions. I'm sorry, but I can't help you with Fortuniana cuttings.
