I am trying to obtain a few seeds of Eucalyptus olida. It is available from one of the government seedbanks in Australia, but the cost is very high (US$60)when you take into account minimum order size (1 ounce)and shipping. This species has a unique oil in its leaves, e-methyl cinnamate, which smells like berries. In Australia, it is used in cooking. The leaves are sold in powdered form as a culinary herb. I hope someone on this list has some of this seed they can share. I only need a pinch to get one or two seedlings going in a pot. If there is enough interest, maybe we could pool an order.

I have also tried to locate seeds or plants of Eucalyptus olida some months ago, but never find a source. Would you like to share your adress of your source? We just could need these seeds in bulk quantities!

Here is the online shop that has Eucalyptus olida seed. If you plan to order 1 ounce, I would like to purchase 30 seeds from that.
