It took months to grow seedlings from seeds of some species featured in these photos. Take the quiz by @pagomba and see if you can identify the seedlings! All species are part of our Seed Traits for Tree Production project at the Millennium Seed Bank. Happy National Tree Week!

December's #SeedOfTheMonth is sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa). We're researching cryopreservation approaches for conserving seeds and pollen of this species through our #GlobalTreeSeedBank project funded by Garfield Weston Foundation Clare Callow

Last week, I attended the BES meeting for the first time and enjoyed a range of fascinating talks. I also had the opportunity to present our project on the predicted impacts of climate change on the germination of UK tree populations. @KewScience British Ecological Society
