Thank you so much for your reply! I think i have to plant her in a not so sunny place to protect her from cold and wind. She will not stand -3C with wind... better to protect her in the midle of my corktrees!  ;D

So, what plant is the one we have instead of Hedvekuli?

1970
I am sorry to say that some members reported me these were not to be true Hedvekuli seeds

I am trying my hard to get these  ones again.

Once I find them,I will send some to those I gave Hedvekuli seeds earlier.

I am sorry for causing inconvenience.

I just found in this link that we can use all GAC fruit including pulp and seeds: Gac fruit composition

Nutritionally, Gac fruit is special because the flesh around the seeds (aril) is rich in carotenoids, especially β-carotene and lycopene. Gac fruits also contain relatively high levels of α-tocopherol (vitamin E), polyunsaturated fatty acids, and polyphenol compounds and flavonoids. A number of studies highlight the important role of these bioactive compounds play in human health. Gac fruit products also have market potential as alternative to the artificial colorants such as Tartrazine, Sunset Yellow, and Quinoline Yellow, which are associated with behavioral problems in children.

In addition to the Gac aril having a very high nutritional content, the carotenoid content in the yellow pulp of the Gac fruit (mesocarp) is relatively high as compared with many plant foods. Furthermore, the yellow pulp represents approximately half of the weight of an entire fresh fruit and is the highest anatomical component. However, whereas the aril is traditionally used for food preparation due to its attractive color and high nutrients, the pulp is often discarded. Similarly, Gac skin, which represents about 17% of the total weigh of the fruit, is not used. Importantly, the seeds containing high levels of fatty acids and other products are not usually used. Recently we have reviewed those bioactive compounds of all part of Gac fruit published in Food Review International Journal. See our publication. Therefore, identifying means of utilizing of these components is necessary to reduce the environmental problem of waste and to enhance the economic value of the fruit. http://gacfruit.weebly.com/gac-fruit-composition.html
