New seeds from across the ocean

Roy and buddy, Paul Noren, visited Ecuador in May, and while there collected some fruit and flower seeds to try in central Africa.  They got the permits and mailed them to themselves across the water.  It took 2 months from Roy's hands in South America to his hands in Africa.  Thankfully all but one baggie of seeds made it just fine.  This is an example of the "E" in CEFA - experimenting with growing new plants to see how they do and if the local population is interested, without them having to take the hit if it doesn't succeed.
