Ruth Ann Brown in Portland, Oregon just had her Chinese Parasol seed sprouted. Take a look at Ruth's extensive documentations of her Parasol sprout in many sites. Ruth's sprout is the first Chinese Parasol sprout in the US after Yuki Kimura's in Kyoto, Japan. Congrats, Ruth!

In Kyoto, Japan, on a rainy day when Yuki Kimura recived Chinese Parasol Tree seeds in an envelope, one of the seeds in the plastic bag was starting to sprout. So Yuki immediately planted that seed and now her Chinese Parasol Tree seed sprouted at the end of May. This is the first Chinese Parasol Tree seed sprouting in Tree Project 2009. Congrats!
