Hidden Springs has sold Nottingham for a long time. At on time, the
NCGR they found that just about all the medlars sold in the U.S. were
Nottingham, regardless of name. Since then, the newer importations are
being sold at a few places.

Interesting. I was wondering why medlar was grafted onto other stock
and forgot to ask why. I've never found Nottingham for sale at a US
nursery. I've only seen it on British sites.
