In this YouTube video, Bailey from TN Nursery walks viewers through the current seed season in Tennessee, highlighting a range of native seeds and young plants available for purchase. The segment begins with witch hazel seeds, noted for their winter blooming habit, then moves to pawpaw seeds that will be planted this year and shipped by 2027, accompanied by photos of mature trees. American plum seeds are introduced as newly stocked beautiful trees. Elderberry seeds are described as unattractive but highly beneficial for attracting birds and fast-growing, with an expected availability next year. The video showcases Rose Mallow (Rose Hibiscus) seeds, a perennial plant with mixed seed colors that are difficult to separate. Eastern Hop Hornbeam seeds are presented, emphasizing the difficulty of extracting them from green pods and their rapid growth after planting. Finally, a new offering of native hazelnut seeds is featured, highlighting the challenge of removing them from their cocoon and showing a mature hazelnut tree. Throughout, Bailey provides visual aids, growth timelines, handling tips, and directs viewers to the online store at TNNursery.net.

Here's a picture of the tree. And here is our Rose Hibiscus, Rose Mellow Hibiscus. These are kind of a perennial plant. They come back every year and they die down. Here's the seeds we got off our plants this year, and we have— these are mixed colors, we can't really separate the colors. And here is, uh, the seeds. I'm trying to bust them open and show them to you. And here's the plants. And here's our Eastern Hop Hornbeam trees. Now, uh, this is the seed, then we'll have the trees probably in about a year after we plant these seeds. They're fairly fast growers.

These are our native hazelnut trees, uh, seed. And I'm excited to see if y'all like these or not. These are really, really hard to get out of their little cocoon, we're drying them out right now, so they'll just pop right out. But that's a unique tree, especially being a native hazelnut. That's just awesome. And I'll show you a hazelnut tree in just a second here. Here they are full grown. They're beautiful. TNNursery.net.
