Clove tree seeds

Really nothing to do with beads, but it's that time of the year that I have clove tree seeds. For those of you who haven't come across them: out of water they live for maybe a week. Some die on the way to Ag inspection (and there really is no way of telling ahead of time). But, there definitely are survivors. I was sent a picture of a clove tree seedling in Germany last week.

I have clove seeds again now. I can ship those to any US state, Canada and to the EU that I know of. There may be other countries that don't require more than a free inspection, but I don't know which.

I am not certified to ship plants out of State.

I would LOVE to get ahold of a clove tree, or some clove tree seeds, or cuttings? anything at all! Do you still have access to clove seeds? Maybe we could speak further via email? Thank you!

Hi John,

I don't have any right now but the tree is full of new buds. I've put you on the waiting list and I'm going to send out email when the clove seeds are ripe.

tansy,

are you interested in cloves or in clove tree seeds?

I have cloves available now though I don't have them listed on my website, Etsy or Artfire.

Cloves are dried flower buds and I have some coming in right now, clove tree seeds are mature pollinated seeds that are only viable before they dry out, and I have at least a few months to go before I get any.

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Maren

I'm interested in purchasing clove seeds from you, if you have some! Seedlings would be even more exciting, but whatever you have. Add me to your list if you can, please :)

Happy to add you to the list.

Update: while we don't normally get cloves until about May we're getting cloves in February this year. I expect the clove seeds to be earlier than usual as well. The bees appear to be doing their job :)

Added you to the list too.

My current estimate is that clove seeds should happen approximately in May.

I would LOVE to try my hand at growing cloves! Herbs & other plants that add scent to my landscape and garden are my favorites and something for which I am always looking. Please add me to your list as I would dearly love to get some of your clove seeds when they become available. I don't know how well they will do in Arkansas but I'm game for giving it a shot!

Maren aka hilobeads aka Palms, Etc. said...

I will need an email address. Please email me at hilobeads (at) gmail (dot) com (and please also don't be too surprised if you get a reply from an email address that ends in .edu)

Maren aka hilobeads aka Palms, Etc. said...

I now have clove seeds for smallish orders.

I emailed everybody who posted here and included an email address. One bounced saying "The email account that you tried to reach does not exist".

If you didn't get email please check your spam folder or email me at hilobeads at gmail dot com.
