Gileno, those variegated Tahinas have been growing here in Scotland for years now, but they're classed as an invasive species - all those towering palms crowding out the heather don't impress the tourists much, and they crowd out the haggis' habitat so the government keep cutting them down. Hope you manage to get rid of your seeds. :)
