American Chestnut

[mattpatt]

I know this is probably a long shot but I’m looking for a verifiable source of American Chestnut. I have a nice little spot in mind away from all of my Chinese trees and would like to get a few started. I also realize it’s a little early for nuts right now but thought I’d go ahead and put in my request. I will have plenty of late dropping Chinese Chestnut, Concordia Oak, DCO, Chinkapin and Burr to trade. Also $$ if you’re not interested in trades. Let me know what you got.

Thanks,
Matt

Check out Bill Deeter, he has some impressive specimens and is willing to give out seeds.

Join the ACF! Allen Nichols is the head of the NY chapter. I know they give seeds away, and will sell them on occasion as well.

Last time I tried they said I could join but they wouldn’t send me any nuts as I’m in Texas and not within the native range for American Chestnut. This was several years ago. I wasn’t aware that they sold them too.

I found a really nice one on my place this weekend. Already showing blight but reached a good size first.

Can’t remember if someone on here sent me some American chestnut nuts or not? I didn’t do a very good job of who sent me the seed. In any event I ended up with four viable nuts and here they are.
