Notes: Label source: Seed Issue Advice Note From J Keesing 25.3.1986 - origin Lokuloku, quantity 0.3 kg. 'GEW Do you want to see some T.megalocarpa endocarps ? just arrived from the Solomom Islands - famine food - they eat the flesh which alas the folk have car, efully removed for transport. The seeds are not eaten. 4 out of the 10 I'm going to ask the Jodrell to inspect to see if there's any obvious noxious reason why not - since the seeds are huge & easily got out (in contrast to some other spp. that birds eat, the seeds of). The other 10 I hope to grow signed Mark Coode
