Have: Pecan nuts from George Washington's Mount Vernon

Over Labor Day weekend, my family visited Mount Vernon Estate near D.C. I was quite impressed with the old pecan (Carya illinoinensis) tree towering over George Washington's old house. This tree was huge and at least 100 years old. Underneath it, my daughter and I found numerous green pecan nuts, so we collected a handful. Now sure if they will germinate, but if you are interested, I have about 20 to trade. Please send me a D-mail.

The tree is on the left of the house in the photo.
