| It is illegal and dangerous to the domestic fruit industry to import scion wood from Europe. For example plum pox virus is widespread in Europe. Canada spent $180,000,000 trying to eradicate PPV and failed. It has been eradicated from USA but could be back. Importing scionwood is the likely entry point. |

| Yes,..forgot to mention, it's illegal, seeds OK. You're better off to check with Russian nurseries. |

| Given the scant information available in English on the Internet I suspect those varieties are rare in the US. If I had them and it was legal in Hungary to receive them I would send you wood for free. Conscientiousness gardeners here abide by the import restrictions because we are aware of the consequences - witness citrus greening. Perhaps you could research varieties available here and see if you find something suitable, that we might be able to help you with. gary |

| Actually Konrad, seeds of stone fruit can transmit some strains of Sharka (plum pox virus). |
