Default Any idea where I could buy some Camellia Sinensis seeds?

I know before we had someone that grew a few tea bushes and posted
their results. Well, I was wondering if anybody here knew where I
could get some seeds because I want to have a try myself. Rather, I
don't want to try but I want to give the seeds to one of my friend's
relatives to try. They live in a rather high place in this province,
and I think it would be suitable for tea production. They have a tea
plantation already, but it's in disuse. Recently, it was bought by
someone I know.

Anyway, it could be a pretty interesting experiment to test some
different cultivars at that elevation. If anybody could provide me
with some sources, I'd be sure to send free samples to all for
tasting!! That is, if this ever becomes anything other than "meng
xiang" (a dream). I guess I could always hop over to Taiwan or visit
Fujian again.


Cheers to those that can help.
