For a sale is an Apollo XIV Sycamore Tree Growing Kit from the American Forests Historic Tress organization. The seeds in this kit were taken from mature sycamore trees that were grown from seeds that Start Roosa carried onboard the Apollo 14 lunar mission. The kit contains 3 seeds, seed staring mix, germination chamber and instructions. Sycamore tress can grow in all regions of the continental U.S.
These kits were originally distributed in 2003 and are no longer being offered – not being a botanist, I can’t guarantee the seeds are still viable. You could try one or two and still have a souvenir 2nd generation Apollo 14 sycamore seed for display with the kit container. $35.00 + $9.95 U.S. postage ($19.95 overseas).
Any questions welcomed. Thanks for looking!
