Hey, does anybody have any advice on potential viability of Araucaria Cunninghamii seed? I believe it is monoecious, is this true? I recently collected fresh seed, from freshly disintegrated cones (below is a picture of the cone-disintegration happening), yet the seed does not seem to be viable when I do the cut-test on it, and I have seen no male cones on any of the trees in this grove. Any experience with this species and seed viability/germination? Pictures of various araucaria below. Also, if anybody happens to collect any ARaucana seed and would be interested in exchanging it for other seed I have it would be appreciated.
