Ales, I'm sorry to have to say it, but the stone fruit seeds are illegal to 
plant here.  In fact, if you are on our side of the Atlantic already, I 
think you should drop them in a fire rather than throw them in the garbage. 
I don't know how many of the others might carry some kind of disease. 
Technically they might all be illegal, but in practical terms we have MOST 
but not all the plant diseases you have.  We already have access to most of 
your list, though it is possible you have some germplasm in your collection 
that we don't have or can't get yet.  Most of the time seeds are safer, much 
safer than scions, but plum pox goes through seeds.  I'd like to see more 
input on this subject from some of you who have experience with quarantine 
regulations.     Donna
